RESEARCH INTEREST
Syntheses of N/O/S heterocyclic molecules for biochemical studies.My research is directed toward the synthesis of N/O/S containing heterocyclic natural and non-natural
compounds that possess interesting structures and useful biological activities. Problems of current
interest encompass the synthesis of natural products and substances incorporating medium-ring
nitrogen/oxygen/sulfur heterocycles (immunusuppressants; cytotoxic agents; antioxidant; and so on).
Besides, the importance of carbohydrates in biological processes has long been known. Armed with
innovative tools for synthesizing, modifying and studying oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates, our
understanding of these biomolecules is rapidly improving. This knowledge is also yielding promising
candidates for carbohydrate-diagnostics, drugs and vaccines. These substances are of great interest in
oncology, microbiology, immunology, and genetics. My research is thus especially relevant to the
objectives of Drug Research, an exciting multidisciplinary research area.
