Acknowledgements
First of all I wish to express my deep sense gratitude and respect to my research
supervisor Dr. Thomas Daniel, for introducing me to the fascinating field of Organic
chemistry, his valuable guidance and helpful suggestions throughout my Ph.D.
programme.
I owe a very special word of gratitude to Dr. U. R. Kalkote, Dr. (Mrs) S. R.
Deshpande and Dr. (Mrs) S. S. Joshi, for their time to time discussion, suggestions,
help and encouragement.
It is my pleasant duty to express my grateful and sincere thanks to Dr. C. K. John, Dr.
H. Thulasiram and Dr. Vincent Paul for their valuable co-operation during this
work.
I am also thankful to Dr. Ganesh Pandey (Head, Division of Organic Chemistry) and
Dr. Sourav Paul (Director, NCL) for permitting me to work in NCL.
I extend my gratitude to Dr. S. P. Chavan, Dr. H. B. Borate, Dr. C. V. Ramana, Mr.
I. Shivakumar, Dr. Muthukrishnan, Dr. Bhattacharya, Dr. R. A. Joshi, Dr. (Mrs)
R. R. Joshi, Dr. M. Shashidhar, Dr. N. N. Joshi, Mr. P. B. Jadkar, Dr. P.
Rajmohan and all other scientists of NCL.
I would also like to acknowledge all the staff members of GC-MS, HPLC, IR, NMR,
Mass, Microanalysis, X-ray analysis, Library, Administration and technical divisions
of NCL for their assistance during the course of my work.
I take this opportunity to thank my seniors as well as labmates Sharad, Abhijeet,
Ganesh, Murali, Devavaram, Satyawan, Amol, Roshan, Machhindra, Satej,
Shrikant and Hanuman for their support. They made working in the lab enjoyable. I
wish to thank division office staff, Mrs. Catherine, Mrs. Kulkarni, Mr. Fernandis,
Mr. Ranawade, Mr. Kakade and others for their help whenever needed.
My thanks are due to my NCL friends Nilesh, Sharanappa, Lalit, Prakash, Kailash,
Raivannath, Sachin, Tanpreet, Swati and Trupti for their sincere co-operation.
My feeling go beyond the limit of my language in acknowledging my out of NCL
friends Rahul Lavekar, Sachin Tambat and Yogesh Jungle for their constant moral
support throughout the course of my work. I am also thankful to my beloved parents,
family members, relatives and teachers who have contributed a lot for me to reach
this stage. The love and support from my wife Mrs. Smita for the healthy and
inspiring environment without whom I would not been able to stand out as a person
and my deep sense of gratitude remains forever. The thesis is a form to pay respect to
their attributes.
