Harnessing Strained Systems: Arynes, Donor Acceptor Cyclopropanes, and Bicyclobutanes in Annulations, Multicomponent Couplings and Insertion Reactions
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 ...
Transition in the Conformational Ensemble of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: Implications for Phase Separation and Aggregation
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are enriched with charged and polar residues and lack a unique three-dimensional structure. Due to the high fraction of charged residues, IDPs are disordered and dynamic, transitioning ...
Growth and Characterization of Single crystalline VO2 Heterostructures
Vanadium dioxide is a strongly correlated material with a temperature driven metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) near room temperature (~340 K). This electronic transition is accompanied by a structural transition from ...
Studies of Pyridoneimine in Site-Selective Functionalization of Carbohydrates and in Multivalent Phenomenon
Carbohydrates are functionally rich biomolecules with multiple hydroxy functionalities. As a result, the most often practiced chemical route is to install protecting groups that permit selective functionalization at the ...
Solid Oxide Based Electrodes for CO2 Reduction
The conversion of CO2 to fuels can be instrumental in reducing future dependence on fossil fuels. High temperature (800oC) electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO using a solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) provides an ...
Syntheses and Structural Investigations of Iron(III) Ternary Complexes And Cu(II) Binary Complexes of Nucleotide and its Constituents
Nucleotide is the monomeric unit of DNA and RNA, being the building block of nucleic acid, it plays important roles in many biological processes. For example, Adenosine tri phosphate (ATP) acts as a storage and transporter ...
Microwave Spectroscopic and Computational Studies on Hydrogen-Bonded Complexes
Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions are key contributors to numerous biological phenomena and have significant implications in synthetic chemistry as well. In supramolecular chemistry and crystal engineering, ...
From Multidimensional non-Markovian Rate Theory to Diffusion-Entropy Scaling and Investigations into the validity of Hydrodynamic Stokes Law
Multidimensional rate theory provides a theoretical framework for understanding chemical reactions that occur in systems with more than one reaction coordinate, such as isomerization reactions, protein folding, or electron ...
On the Origin of Parasitic (Electro)Chemistry in Rechargeable Aprotic Metal-Oxygen Batteries
Aprotic metal-oxygen batteries, especially Li-O2 and Na-O2 batteries, could afford theoretical specific
energies in excess of 1000 Wh/kg. However, the practical realization of the theoretically possible high
specific ...
Unleashing the Potential of Nanomaterials in Organic Synthesis: QD-based Photocatalysis and AuNP-catalysed Cascade Rearrangement Reaction
The thesis titled Unleashing the Potential of Nanomaterials in Organic Synthesis: QD-based Photocatalysis and AuNP-catalysed Cascade Rearrangement Reaction explores innovative strategies for organic synthesis using ...
