The thesis entitled “Organocatalytic Cascade Cyclizations for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Spirooxindoles” is divided into three chapters. Chapter 1: Catalytic Enantioselective Michael Addition/Cyclization Cascade ...

The thesis entitled “The Role of Liposomal Hybrids and Gold Nanoparticles in the Efficacious Transport of Nucleic Acids and Small Molecular Drugs for Cancer Nanomedicine” elucidates the preparation of various liposomal ...

This thesis entitled “Design and Synthesis of Peptidomimics Constrained in Helical and Sheet Conformations Using a Novel Covalent Surrogate for the Peptide Main Chain Hydrogen Bond” is divided into six chapters. Chapter ...

The thesis describes the synthesis and application of various alkynones derived from the bis-Weinreb amide of tartaric acid in the total synthesis of macrolactone natural products. The thesis is divided into three sections. ...

Vanadium oxides are being used as the thermal sensing layer because of their applications in infrared detectors. They have high temperature coefficient of resistance, favorable electrical resistance and compatibility with ...

Carbohydrate-protein interactions are responsible for several biological functions. While these interactions maintain high levels of specificities, the binding strength of individual carbohydrate-protein recognitions are ...

Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) have drawn great attention in the last few years owing to their unique properties such as excellent water solubility, chemical stability, inertness, low toxicity, good bio-compatibility, and ...

The constant trend of device miniaturization along with ever-growing list of unusual behaviour of nanoscale materials has fuelled the recent research in fabrication and applications of ultrathin (~2 nm diameter) nanowires. ...

This thesis aims at investigating size dependence of properties of nanostructures from the point of view of a general scaling theory that smoothly connects properties of the bulk to that of nanostructures. Two different ...
