More than a century ago, the discovery of aryne intermediates proved to be a valuable addition to the toolkit of organic chemists, enabling the synthesis of a diverse range of molecules using these electrophilic ...

In chemical biology, short peptidomimetic biological active models have been widely used for anti-microbial activity, drug development, catalysis, and amyloidogenesis. In this thesis, I have synthesized several unnaturally ...

The thesis entitled “High-Resolution Charge Density Studies on Electronic Nature of Weak Interactions and Correlation of Molecular Conformation with Packing in Solid State” consist of five chapters. Chapter 1 is a brief ...

Binding and activation of chemically inert and strong sigma H−X bonds (X = H, B, Si, C) in small molecules such as H2, H3B.NR3, HSiR3, and CH4 have been the subject of intense research interest. The binding of a small ...

Host-guest interactions are key to enzyme-substrate recognition, where the enzyme acts as a host, providing a specific cavity for the guest to bind. Inspired by host-guest interactions observed in nature, a significant ...

I started writing this thesis not only to obtain a doctoral degree, but also to compile in a particular way all the work that I have done during this time. The articles published during these years can only give a short ...

Dendrimers are a class of perfectly branched symmetric monodisperse macromolecules, which are synthesized using a stepwise procedure. Due to their highly symmetric structure, they possess a definite core, discrete generations ...

This thesis focuses on studying heterostructures of GaN, Silicon and AlN. GaN nanostructures are grown on bare Si (111) with and without a GaN buffer layer and GaN film was grown on an AlN layer. Apart from the material ...

The thesis entitled “In situ crystallography and charge density analysis of phase transitions in complex inorganic sulfates” consists of six chapters. Structural changes exhibited by ferroic and conducting materials are ...
