Mapping The Reaction Coordinate For The Oxidative Addition Of Molecular Hydrogen To A Metal Center
(2010-07-15)The binding of molecular hydrogen to a metal center leads to the elongation of the H−H bond and subsequently to its cleavage along the reaction coordinate for the oxidative addition of H2. There has been considerable ... -
Materials For Hydrogen Generation, Storage, And Catalysis
(2013-01-22)Hydrogen, nature’s simple and the most abundant element has been in the limelight for the past few decades from the stand point of the so-called hydrogen economy. With a high calorific value (142 MJ/kg) that is three times ... -
Mechanistic Insights Into Small Molecule (Amine-Boranes, Hydrogen, Methane, Formic Acid Carbon dioxide) Activation Using Electrophilic Ru(II)-Complexes
(2017-11-09)Current fossil fuels (Coal and Petroleum) based economy is not sustainable in the long run because of its dwindling resources, and increasing concerns of climate change due to excessive carbon dioxide (CO2) emission. To ... -
Mechanistic Investigation of Metal Promoted Nucleophilic Additions
(2017-11-30)Nucleophilic additions are an important class of reactions in the preparation of several organic compounds. Metals facilitate nucleophilic additions in many cases. The present work Mechanistic Investigation of Metal Promoted ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 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, ... -
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 ... -
Molecularly Imprinted Polymers Based On Fluorescent And Template Binding Cross-Linker
(2013-05-23)The synthesis of materials with molecular recognition properties has become a topic of great technological and scientific interest. Molecular imprinting is one of the most effective strategies in preparing highly selective ... -
Nanoparticle Mediated Suppression of Protein Aggregation
(2018-05-11)The increasing demands for biopharmaceuticals to treat different diseases have raised concerns about controlling the quality and efficacy of such pharmaceuticals. The design and formulation of a stable protein or peptide ... -
Nanostructured Assemblies Based On Metal Colloids And Monolayers: Preparation, Characterisation And Studies Towards Novel Applications
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-08)Nanoscience dominates virtually every field of science and technology in the 21st century. Nanoparticles are of fundamental interest since they possess unique size- dependent properties (optical, electrical, mechanical, ... -
Nature Of Solute-Solvent Interaction : Effect Of Solvent Polarity On Excited State Structure Of 2,2,2-Trifluroacetophenone And Effect Of Hydrogen Bonding In Hydrated Electron Absorption Spectrum
(2009-09-02)In solution, the environment around the solute is determined solely by the solvent molecules, which are present closer to the solute. This interaction between solute and solvent shell is very crucial for equilibrium structure ... -
A New Class of Boron-Nitrogen Compounds : A Rational Approach for the Design and Development of Smart Materials
Replacing nonpolar homodiatomic C=C unit in a fully carbon -conjugated system with an isoelectronic polar heterodiatomic B-N fragment is an active area of research. The first BN/CC isosterism was demonstrated seven decades ... -
