Carbohydrates are ubiquitous and important biomolecules. Initially thought to be dull, energy storing moieties, the importance of carbohydrates and their conjugates, glycoproteins and glycopilids, in cellular communication ...

The thesis entitled “Enantioselective synthesis of bio-active bicyclic acetals, cyclic ethers and lactones” demonstrates the utility of chiral pool tartaric acid as the source in the synthesis of natural products. The ...

The present work mainly focuses on the reactivity of monoterpenes like Carenes, Pinenes and their derivatives, which has vinylcyclopropane or vinylcyclobutane linkage. These moieties were well known to rearrange by treating ...
