Catalytic Studies with Ru and Ir Half-sandwich Complexes Bearing NHC Ligands
The thesis describes the study of arene-tethered and untethered Ru half-sandwich complexes as catalysts in the addition of hydroelements (E‒H, E = H, B, Si) across unsaturated C-C, C-N and C-O bonds and transfer hydrogenation ...
Syntheses and Structure Elucidations of Co-crystal with Nicotinamide Co-former
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 ...
Studies on Layered Ternary Metal Chalcogenides: Electronic devices, Sensors and Electrocatalysis
Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained tremendous interest since the discovery of graphene in 2004 due to their unique physical and chemical properties. They have been used in various research fields ...
Micro-spectroscopic studies on Mycobacteria & Cancer cells
Evasion of the immune system is a key hallmark of cancer progression. Developing strategies that diagnose early the immune-cancer synapse may lead to long term cures from these aggressive cancers. We aimed to develop optical ...
Design and Application of Self-Assembled Coordination Cages for Catalysis and as Drug Carrier
In summary the present thesis accounts for the design and synthesis of various coordination cages
formed through the self-assembly reaction of the newly designed pyridine and pyrimidine based
ligands with various 90° ...
Aqueous and Non- aqueous dispersions of MoS2 Nanosheets
The focus of this thesis is an attempt
to provide a molecular perspective of the interactions of solvent and ligand molecules with
sonication assisted exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets in aqueous and non-aqueous dispersions.
In ...
Chemistry of carbonized metallic nanomaterials
Magnetic nanomaterials have received significant attention because of their remarkable
properties enabling applications in various fields such as catalysis, as contrast agents for
magnetic resonance imaging, in sensing ...
Mechanistic Studies of Transfer Hydrogenation Catalyzed by Ru(ll)-Half-Sandwich and Group 6 NHC complexes
The thesis explores the mechanistic aspects of transfer hydrogenation of ketones and hydrosilylation of imines; two commonly used organic transformations catalyzed by ruthenium half-sandwich complexes of 2-oxazolidinethiones, ...
The Structural Chemistry of Boron, Borospherenes and Borophenes: A Computational Study
Structural complexity is one of the characteristics of boron chemistry. The 3D solids formed from icosahedral B12 units is thought of as most favorable arrangement for boron allotropes. However, recent discoveries in this ...
Sol-gel based organic-inorganic hybrid coatings for corrosion protection of aerospace aluminium alloy
Aluminium metal is known for its high electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and high reflectivity. Aluminium alloys of 2XXX series, particularly the 2024 alloy with the quaternary Al–Cu–Mg–Mn composition are widely ...
