Research Projects
Project Title Project Type Year Of Sanction Outcome/Output Duration
Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Mixed Ligands Complexes of Transition Metal Major 2014 Several new complexes were successfully synthesized, characterized spectroscopically and published in scientific journals. 25-05-2011 To 04-07-2014 (3 years, 1 months, 9 days)
C-H Functionalization of Aromatic Amines for Azidation: Amine directed and catalysed by Cu(II) with Betti Base as the Ligands and supported by DFT Calculations. Major 2019 The project outcome has led to understand the impact of ligand upon the metal center for catalysis and how the catalyst's efficiency can be enhanced with the support of DFT calculations. 2-azido aniline has a wide application, but its usage thus far is limited due to its extremely costly affair. In fact, it is not even available in the Indian market. However, through the success of this project, it can now be synthesized very economically. 27-02-2019 To 26-02-2022 (2 years, 11 months, 30 days)
Novel Catalyst-free cascade sequence of C(sp3)-H activation and hydroamination for the synthesis of a new class of bisquinolines Major 2024 Ongoing since 02-02-2024 (2 years, 6 months, 5 days)
