Aqueous and Non-aqueous Dispersions of Graphene and Boron Nitride Nanosheets : NMR Measurements and Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Preface
Ever since the discovery of graphene in 2004, there has been considerable interest in
two dimensional (2D) nanomaterials due to their distinctive properties and the prospect
of potential applications. A ...
New Class of Tricoordinate Boron Based Donor-Acceptor (D-A) Systems Exhibiting External Stimuli Responsive Properties, Delayed Emission and Room Temperature Phosphorescence
The main thrust of this thesis is the design and development of a new class of boron-based acceptors, with a substituent which maintains good electronic coupling between boron and the other substitutes on boron, without ...
Studies on Iron and Cobalt Complexes showing Photo-induced Anticancer Activity
In this thesis the various facets of the chemistry of photocytotoxic iron and cobalt complexes have been investigated along with their syntheses, characterization, evaluation of the photocytotoxic activities in various ...
Studies on Oxovanadium(IV) Complexes for Photocytotoxicity and Cellular Imaging
The thesis work deals with different aspects of the chemistry of oxovanadium(IV) complexes, their interaction with DNA, photo-induced cleavage of double-stranded DNA, photocytotoxic effect on cancer and normal cells in ...
Anomalous Diffusion in a Rearranging Medium Diffusing Diffusivity Models
Diffusion processes, because of their applications to a wide range of phenomena, have been a subject of great scientific interest ever since Einstein formulated the celebrated theory of Brownian motion. Brownian motion is ...
Chemistry of Ru(II) Complexes Bearing N-heterocyclic Carbene, Hydride, and Dihydrogen Ligands : Synthesis, Mechanistic Insights, and Applications
Introduction
N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) are strong donors and weak acceptors. Also, NHC forms strong metal-carbon bonds in metal complexes and hence complexes bearing NHC ligands are in general, thermally stable. ...

Luminescent materials find numerous applications in recent times and have enriched human lives in several different ways. From display and lighting technologies to security, sensing and biological investigations, luminescent ...
Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Studies of Bronsted Acid-Base Chemistry in Aqueous Solutions
(2018-08-11)
Knowledge of the dissociation constants of the ionizable protons of weak acids in aqueous media is of fundamental importance in many areas of chemistry and biochemistry. The pKa value, or equilibrium dissociation constant, ...
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 ...
Exploring New Designs of Amphiphilic Graft Copolymers and Forays into 2D Polymers
Amphiphilic polymers, wherein two or more immiscible polymeric segments are connected covalently, form an interesting class of macromolecules that can self-assemble in block selective solvents as well as in bulk, to exhibit ...
