Structure-Activity Correlation and Mechanistic Investigations of Glutathione Peroxidase-Like Catalytic Activity of Diaryl Diselenides
Hydroperoxides are very harmful and they can oxidize several biomolecules, causing different disease states. Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is a mammalian selenoenzyme which protects human body from oxidative damage by ...
Electrochemical Investigations Related to the Next Generation Sodium and Potassium Batteries
The commercialization of Li-ion battery (LIB) in 1990s by Sony Corporation has led to its applications in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, cameras, laptop computers, etc. Initially, the energy density of ...
A New Class of Boron-Nitrogen Compounds : A Rational Approach for the Design and Development of Smart Materials
Replacing nonpolar homodiatomic C=C unit in a fully carbon -conjugated system with an isoelectronic polar heterodiatomic B-N fragment is an active area of research. The first BN/CC isosterism was demonstrated seven decades ...
Exploring New Designs of Amphiphilic Graft Copolymers and Forays into 2D Polymers
Amphiphilic polymers, wherein two or more immiscible polymeric segments are connected covalently, form an interesting class of macromolecules that can self-assemble in block selective solvents as well as in bulk, to exhibit ...
Theoretical Investigation of H-Bonded O-H Vibrations, H-Atom Transfer and C-H Vibrations via Empirical Valence Bond and Local Mode Based Models
In this thesis, I have presented my work on properties of hydrogen(H) bonded systems, H-atom transfer reaction in solution and molecular vibrational spectra through theoretical inves-tigations. The studies are based on two ...
Understanding Ultrafast Molecular Structural Dynamics in Liquids : Ultrafast Raman Loss and Transient Absorption Study
The present thesis deals with the detailed ultrafast experimental studies on the ex-cited state vibrational dynamics of model chemical systems in condensed phase. The molecular systems are studied by means of Ultrafast ...
Aqueous and Non-aqueous Dispersions of Graphene and Boron Nitride Nanosheets : NMR Measurements and Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Preface
Ever since the discovery of graphene in 2004, there has been considerable interest in
two dimensional (2D) nanomaterials due to their distinctive properties and the prospect
of potential applications. A ...
Studies on Iron and Cobalt Complexes showing Photo-induced Anticancer Activity
In this thesis the various facets of the chemistry of photocytotoxic iron and cobalt complexes have been investigated along with their syntheses, characterization, evaluation of the photocytotoxic activities in various ...
Development and Evaluation of Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation Coatings for Spacecraft Applications
Spacecraft structures are often fabricated out of light weight materials in order to reduce the overall mass, thereby reducing the launch cost and/or increasing the payload capability. Aluminium alloys, especially AA6061, ...
