About

I am a Synthetic Medicinal/Organic Chemist with Pharmaceutical research interests in isolation, semi-synthesis and analysis of small molecules from natural resources and synthetic medicinal chemistry techniques to synthesize lead compounds for drug discovery.

Further, I am also interested in evaluating ADMET of Herbs and their novel (Nanotechnology based) formulations with better pharmacokinetic profile. Herb-Drug interactions evaluation is yet another area of my interest.

Professional Skills
Schrodinger drug discovery suit, Chemdraw, MS Office.
Interpretation using NMR, LC-MS/Maldi, HPLC, FTIR, DSC, UV, etc
Multi-step Organic Synthesis
Palladium catalyzed coupling reactions
Handling of hazardous chemicals like BuLi, t-BuLi, NaH, etc
Microwave assisted organic synthesis in complete dry and inert atmosphere.
In vivo (anti-diabetic, Pharmacokinetics, Herb-drug interaction) studies
Purification techniques like Column Chromatography, Preparative TLC, etc
High throughput virtual screening using molecular modeling
