This thesis presents a combined time-independent and time-dependent quantum mechanical study of a system, Catecholate Monoanion (CM) for the study of H atom tunneling. It has an intramolecular H bond leading to a symmetric ...

Amphiphiles are natural or synthetic molecules consisting of hydrophilic polar head group and hydrophobic non-polar hydrocarbon tail. Beyond a certain concentration, known as critical micellar concentration (CMC), amphiphilic ...

Covalent attachment of the fusion protein, Small Ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO), to recalcitrant target proteins (especially transmembrane proteins) make purification of the target protein much easier by enhancing its ...

Structural fluctuation in organic molecular semiconductors often plays a key role in fragmenting the conducting pathways even in their condensed phases due to the large fraction of free volumes, acting as trap sites for ...

The thesis provides a systematic investigation of materials derived from different mineral species such as vanthoffite and related minerals structures. Search of new multifunctional materials continues to be a challenge ...

My thesis involves studying the pyrolysis/thermal decomposition of cyclohexane derivatives (important constituents of conventional transportation fuel). From the literature as well as the composition analysis of two fuels ...

Bicontinuous functional porous polymers are desirable in terms of pore accessibility, particularly for applications in templating, chromatographic separation, and catalysis. Bicontinuous morphologies can be obtained by ...

The thesis presents manganese‒ and rhodium‒catalyzed C‒H bond activation and tandem cyclization reactions. These reactions lead to the construction of carbon‒carbon bonds using directing group strategy. The thesis is divided ...

The thesis contains radical and Lewis acid-mediated syntheses of panaginsene, indole-fused azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes, and davanoids. The thesis includes three chapters; chapter-I contains the total synthesis of panaginsene, ...

Supramolecular gels are soft materials consisting of a solid three-dimensional network with noncovalent interactions such as hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, cation-п, and п- п interactions. Due to their soft, ...
