The thesis represents an approach for the C-H bond activation using directing group strategy. The C-H activation happens through five/six-membered metallacycle through concerted metallation deprotonation. Further ...

In summary, we have explored an interesting pH-dependent sensitization of Tb(III) using methyl salicylate (MS) as a sensitizer in aqueous media. Methyl salicylate was found to be a specific sensitizer for Tb(III) but not ...

Abstract : Co-crystals consist of two or more components that form a unique crystalline structure having unique properties. The components interact via non-covalent, ionic interaction, van der Waals interactions and π-π ...

Structural and electrochemical investigation of LiFePO4OH hydroxyphosphate material. The synthesis and structure of this material is explained. The hydrothermally synthesized material crystallizes in triclinic structure ...

Photodetectors are widely used as image sensors, in optical communication, remote sensing etc. IR detectors find widespread applications in night vision cameras and medical diagnostics. In this thesis a new chalcopyrite ...

The broad objective of this thesis involves computationally modeling protein aggregation with special emphasis on the role of cosolvents and misfolded states. Chapter 1 contrasts the effect of biologically relevant co-solvents ...

A battery is a companion whose interests are world-wide and whose society has never-ending interests. Batteries have applications in cars to space and there is ever growing addiction to batteries. A battery consists of two ...

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 ...

In this thesis, we have attempted to understand the working principle of Li(Na)-S(Se) battery and following such understandings we have attempted towards the design of various S(Se)- cathode materials for the alkali based ...

In summary, we have developed a catalytic enantioselective desymmetrization of prochiral 1,3-dinitropropanes, which proceeds via enantiogroup differentiating allylic alkylation reaction. Functionalized allylic carbonates ...
