Synthesis and characterization of water soluble carbon
nanotubes.
Functionalization of carbon nanotubes and investigation on
their properties using EPR, NMR, electrochemistry,
flouroscence, uv-visible-nir ir., ORD, FTIR, Raman
spectroscopy, magnetisms , surface studies by AFM, TEM, SEM
in relevance to their ‘exo’/’endo’ interaction with water,
acid and biomolecules.
Carbon
Nanotubes will be synthesized by different techniques and
made them water soluble. Encapsulation Chemistry will be
developed with this for Drug delivery
Porphyrinogen chemistry
related to dehydrogenase reactions : The proposed
work relates to understand the dehydrogenase reaction of
some synthesized
porphyrinogens and their metallated vision in relevance to
the biosynthesis
of porphyrin via porphyrinogen
The precursor of
porphyrin,porphyrinogen has the precursor diphenyl
dipyrromethane type molecules and assembly of such molecule
under metal template reaction will be investigated to
understand the nature of biochemical role of porphyrin and
related molecule.
Chemistry
of Metallocorroles and Metalloporphyrins:
The chemistry of Porphyrinogen related to its dehydrogenase
reaction to yield Porphyrins, will be pursued with context
of Metalloderivatives. Similar chemistry will be
correlated with Metallocorrole derivatives.
Nitrosyl -
Iron complexes in relevance to NO- transfer in biology.
The work is related to understand the chemistry related to
NO- and Iron Sulphur cluster available in Biology. Radical
reaction between Iron -Sulphur system will be carried out
to understand the transport and reactivity of NO in
biological cell reaction.
