INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs” if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

G. Christoph Dr. P.G. Gassman Dr. C.W. Mathews Department of Chemistry ACKWOVILEDGEMENTc I would like to thank friends and family for their generous support throughout this project. Special thanks, however, must go to Dr. P.W.R. Corfield for his counsel and guidance during my graduate career and to Dr. Gary G. Christoph who helped bring this work to its conclusion. Most of all, I must thank my wife, Gladys, however, for her understanding through the many rough places and whose nimble fingers typed the finished copy. VITA Richard Allen Kershaw, J r ., the son of Richard Allen and Betty Barbara, was horn in Cleveland, Ohio on May 2k , 19^7- He received his elementary and secondary education in Euclid, Ohio. In September, 1 9 6 5 , he entered the Ohio State University where he received the B. Sc. degree in Chemistry in June, 19^9* He then went on to graduate study at that university in the fall of 1 9 6 9. 0n March 21, 1970 he married Gladys McIntosh of South Lebanon, Ohio, whom he had met while an under­ graduate at Ohio State University. In December, 1972, he received the M.S. degree in physical Chemistry from the Ohio State University. His thesis was entitled "The Crystal and Molecular Structure of Potassium trans-Bicyclo[5*l*0]octane-U-carboxylate Monohydrate". During the course of his graduate studies he held appointments as a teaching associate except during the period when he was a research assistant under his advisor, Dr. P.W.R. Corfield. During the 1971-1972 school year he was given the additional responsibilities of special assistant in charge of the physical chemistry laboratories. His graduate career was temporarily interrupted so that he might attend several m ilitary schools for the U.S. Army where he holds a commission as Second Lieuten­ ant in the Chemical Corps which is now part of the Ordnance Corps. i i i TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS............................................................................................................................. i i VITA.......................................................................................................................................................i i 'i LIST OF TABLES..................................................................................................................................v i LIST OF FIGURES.................................................................................................................................. x I .
