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, ... -
Metal cxhelates in vinyl polymerisation
A general kinetic scheme for the polymerization of vinyl monomers, initiated by dipivaloyl methane chelates of ferric and cupric, was postulated in Chapter III. The results of the spectral investigation complementary to ... -
Metal-silicate fractionation in the primitive solar nebula: a computational study of the role of f(O2), P, T and charged species
This thesis embodies the results of computational studies of the physico-chemical conditions associated with the condensation of high-temperature phases within the primitive solar nebula. The focus of these studies is on ... -
Metallo-β-Lactamase, Phosphotriesterase And Their Functional Mimics
(2011-01-11)Metallohydrolases with dinuclear-zinc active sites perform many important biological hydrolytic reactions on a variety of substrates. In this regard, metallo-β-lactamases (mβ1, class B) represent a unique subset of zine ... -
Methyl Methacrylate Styrene
Polymeric peroxides are mainly a class of 1:1 copolymers of vinyl monomers and oxygen. The study of the formation of these polymers has been instrumental in explaining the inhibitory role of oxygen in vinyl polymerization. ... -
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 ... -
Microscopic modelling of absorption of dipoles in electrical double layer
(i) A three-state model allowing two orientational states for the solvent and one for the organic adsorbate is analysed to obtain the adsorption isotherm. The approximations under which pseudo Frumkin isotherm can arise ... -
Microwave Rotation-Tunnelling Spectroscopic and Theoretical Studies on Weakly Bound Molecular Complexes: Intermolecular Bonding across the Periodic Table
Intermolecular interactions appear to be well understood in a broad sense today; at a deeper molecular level, it is still evolving. Spectroscopy in this isolated state proved to be a first step toward understanding the ... -
Microwave Spectroscopic and Atoms in Molecules Theoretical Investigations on Weakly Bound Complexes : From Hydrogen Bond to 'Carbon Bond'
(2018-05-01)Weak intermolecular interactions have very strong impact on the structures and properties of life giving molecules like H2O, DNA, RNA etc. These interactions are responsible for many biological phenomena. The directional ... -
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, ... -
Microwave Spectroscopic and Theoretical Investigations on Inter/Intra Molecular Bonding
(2018-05-09)The importance of weak interactions between molecules to life and all parts of science and engineering is unquestionable and there have been an enormous interest in such interactions. Among all the weak interactions, ... -
Mineral chemistry and physico chemical properties of amphibole asbestos form south Karnataka
Formation of amphibole asbestos is related to the metamorphic changes in the host rock. The variety of amphibole asbestos produced depends on the chemistry of the rocks, which, in turn, is determined by the extent of ... -
Mineral-Inspired Oxides: Synthesis and Structure, Luminescence, and Electrocatalytic Studies.
Transition-metal oxides (TMOs) and mineral-inspired oxides have emerged as versatile materials owing to their rich structural diversity and tunable physical properties. A broad class of oxide materials such as those adopting ... -
Mixed Metal Oxide Electrodes for Oxygen Evolution Reaction
This thesis explores transition metal oxide catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction with a specific focus on cobalt and copper oxides. CoOx is well recognized for it’s OER activity, while CuOx received less attention. ... -
Modelling Stochasticity In Selected Biological Processes
(2010-08-16)Biological processes at the cellular level take place in heterogeneous environments, and usually involve only a small number of molecules. They tend to exhibit strong time dependent fluctuations, as a result, and are, ... -
Modulation of Nanostructures in the Solid and Solution States and under an Electron Beam
(2018-03-26)Among various nanomaterials, metal nanoparticles are the widely studied ones because of their pronounced distinct properties arising in the nanometer size regime, which can be tailored easily by tuning predominantly their ... -
Molecular conformation and electronic structure of compounds related to amides & thioamides - a study by ab initio & semiemperical molecular orbital methods
The molecular conformation of amide derivatives is of paramount importance in understanding the factors which govern the conformations of peptides and proteins. A study of the barriers to internal rotation aids in ...
