Associate Professor

Fluorescence spectroscopy, Organic Fluorophores, Porphyrins, synthetic chemistry

Research Topics

  • Synthesis of donor-acceptor type organic molecules based on linear heteroacenes and evaluation of their optical properties for applications as fluorescence based molecular imaging agents.
  • Study of the in vitro bioactivity and DNA-binding properties of linear heteroacenes.
  • Synthesis of porphyins with structural modifications in their periphery and their inner-core in order to induce non-planar molecular conformations - study of their UV-vis and fluorescence properties aimed towards designing porphyrins with red-wavelength absorptions and emissions.

Extramural projects

DST-SERB funded Young Scientist Project titled "Development of beta, beta’-Edge Fused pi-Elongated Donor-Acceptor Porphyrins Possessing Near-IR Optical Spectra" sanctioned from June 2014 for a period of three years; project completed in July 2017.

Sanctioned amount was 24.87 lacs.
