ORGANOMETALLICS AND CATALYSIS  LABORATORY

 

• We are trying to synthesize coordination / organometallic compounds which can act as catalysts in various reactions 

 

• We are developing nano catalytic systems for various organic transformations

 

• Our research group also aims at developing transition metal complexes which can bind with DNA and protein.
