Connecting Science and Technology for a brighter tomorrow



HIGHLIGHTS

Applied Organic Chemistry Group (AOCG), which is under Chemical Science & Technology Division (CSTD) of CSIR-NEIST, Jorhat is dedicated for frontline research in applied & application oriented basic organic chemistry. The group is actively engaged, for last several years in the area of bioactive molecules with main emphasis being laid on the development of process route for drugs/drug intermediates and synthesis of new molecular entities (NMEs) on lead molecules as well as for lead generation. The main focus on the synthesis of new molecular entities is based on known drug molecules and bioactive molecules identified from natural sources. A major thrust of the AOCG is directed in the development of process/heterogeneous recyclable catalyst for industrially important speciality chemicals. The group is also involved in the synthesis of stable metal nanoparticles on nanoporous biopolymers/cellulose templates and their application in organic synthesis.
