(APRIL-2020 – JUNE-2020)
Isolation of compound having antioxidant activity from green coffee extract.
Green coffee bean, dried and crushed, was taken for two soxhlet extractions using Hexane and Methanol respectively.
The obtained material was then screened using phytochemical screening to find out the non-nutritive chemicals and subsequently anti-oxidant assay was performed using the ferric reducing anti- oxidant method in which Methanol extract showed higher activity.
The extract was then studied by column chromatography for isolating compound having anti-oxidant activity, fractions were collected and analyzed using TLC, subsequently concentrated, and studied using NMR spectroscopy.

Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with an aggregate of 82.2%.
+2 passed with an aggregate of 97%.
10th passed with an aggregate of 9.6 CGPA.
ACADEMIC PROJECT
M.Sc. PROJECT
Molybdenum Carbonyl Grafted on Amine functionalized MCM-22 as potential catalyst for Iso-eugenol oxidation
Different concentrations of molybdenum carbonyl were incorporated on the surface of amine-functionalized MCM-22.
The obtained samples were thoroughly characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), powder X-Ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transition electron microscopy (HRTEM), N2-sorption and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) methods.
HRTEM images confirmed the uniform distribution of active molybdenum species on the functionalized MCM-22.
The resultant materials were explored for liquid-phase oxidation of iso-eugenol at ambient reaction conditions.
The catalyst with 6 wt% Mo(CO 6 loaded materials showed comparable conversion
(87%) with vanillin as the major product (selectivity of 61%) for the chosen reaction.
The better catalytic activity of MCM-22-DA-Mo catalyst having 6 wt% loading of Mo carbonyl could be due to the uniform distribution of molybdenum species on MCM- 22-DA surface.
Importantly, the catalyst retained its activity even after several runs. B.Sc. PROJECT
Synthesis of 1, 4-dihydropyridine derivative under sonochemical reactor using Bismuth Oxide CNT-Catalyst
An ethanolic solution of Dimedone, 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, ammonia and multiwall CNT (carbon nanotube) catalyst was irradiated with ultrasound power
Ethanol was removed using rotovapour and crude product, thus obtained was separated using CH2Cl extraction.
The sample was then analyzed using TLC to identify the desired product (1, 4- dihydropyridine) and subsequently analyzed the FTIR spectroscopy.
Successfully synthesized the DHP derivative using green protocol and got an 80% yield.
