The Synthesis of Benzophenone-3,5-Diacid Chloride for the Double Capping of p-Cyclodextrin A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Chemistry Department The College of William and Mary in Virginia In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by C. Wesley Eargle 1997 APPROVAL SHEET This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Approved, April 1997 Gary W. Rice, Ph.D. Robert J. Hinkle, Ph.D. ii DEDICATION This project would have never come as far as it has without the guidance and support of many people, far too many to list on a single page. The author would like to single out three individuals who have, in one way or another, pushed me towards this final goal. This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my brother, Charles Parham Eargle, jr., who never got to appreciate the good times that should have been. This thesis is also dedicated to the memory of my grandfather, Clyde Woodward Rutland, for providing the example that I should hope to follow for the rest of my life. This thesis is also dedicated in honor of my best friend, J.P. Northrop, whose constant support and encouragement allowed me to get through the tough times. Without these people in my life, this thesis would have never come to fruition.
