My research focus revolves around pioneering synthetic methods aimed at synthesizing potentially bioactive heterocyclic compounds. Additionally, I have a keen interest in the photophysical analysis of heterocyclic molecules, exploring their biosensing applications, and delving into the realm of solution thermodynamics.

Molecular rotor dye thioflavin T (ThT) is almost nonfluorescent in low-viscosity solvents but highly fluorescent when bound to amyloid fibrils. This unique property arises from the rotation of the dimethylaniline moiety relative to the benzothiazole moiety in the excited state, which drives the dye from an emissive locally excited state to a twisted intramolecular charge-transfer state. This process is viscosity-controlled, and therefore, we can use the quantum yield of ThT to assess the viscosity of the environment. In this study, we have investigated the quantum yield of ThT (φThT) in various compositions of six alcoholic solvent mixtures of glycerol with methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, iso-propanol, n-butanol, and tert-butanol. We have proposed an empirical model using φThT as a function of the mole fraction of glycerol to estimate the interaction parameters between the components of the solvent mixtures. This analysis allowed us to predict the extent of nonideality of the solvent mixtures. The Förster–Hoffmann- and Loutfy–Arnold-type power law relationship was established between the quantum yield of ThT and bulk viscosity for solvent mixtures of methanol, ethanol, n-butanol, and tert-butanol with glycerol, and it was found to be similar in nature in all the four mixtures. Applying this knowledge, we proposed a methodology to quantify and predict the bulk viscosity coefficient values of several compositions of n-propanol–glycerol and iso-propanol–glycerol mixtures which have not been previously documented.

This study presents the solubility and solvation thermodynamics of coumarin in a range of aqua-organic solvent mixtures at various temperatures. The solubility order of coumarin was determined as follows: DMF > DMSO > ACN > H2O.

The interaction between pyrimidine-annulated spiro-dihydrofuran (PSDF) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated following spectroscopic studies. The results indicate that dynamic quenching contributes to the fluorescence quenching of BSA by PSDF. The binding constant (K) and the number of binding sites (n) were calculated from the recorded spectra. Based on the Forster's non-radiative energy transfer theory, the average binding distance between BSA and PSDF was estimated. The synchronous fluorescence spectra and circular dichroism indicate that the conformation of BSA has been subjected to alteration in presence of PSDF. The thermodynamic parameters namely ΔH, ΔG, ΔS were calculated at different temperatures (20 o C, 30 o C, and 40 o C) and the results indicated van der Waals force and hydrogen bonding were predominantly present. The compound PSDF also found to exhibit antifungal activity against Aspergillus sp. In addition, the results obtained from molecular modeling calculation vividly elucidate the binding mode and the binding sites and results were not well in agreement with the experimental observations.

A catalyst-free, one-pot strategy for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazole-fused 1,4-benzodiazepinone derivatives from N-substituted 2-azidobenzamides and propargyl bromide, in the presence of a base, is reported. The products are formed in good to excellent yields via N-alkylation followed by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition.

Reaction of o-azidobenzenesulfonamides with ethyl carbonochloridate afforded the corresponding amide derivatives, which gave 3-ethoxy-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxides through an intramolecular aza-Wittig reaction. The reaction was found to be general through the synthesis of a number of benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxides. Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of 3-ethoxy-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxides furnished the 2-substituted benzothiadiazine-3-one 1,1-dioxides in good yields and high purity, which is the core moiety of RSV inhibitors.

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of some hitherto unreported pyrimidine-annulated spiro-dihydrofurans has been described. In the presence of AgSbF6 spiro- and furo-pyrimidine (10-hydroxy-4,7,9-substituted-1-oxa-7,9-diazaspiro[4.5]dec-3-ene-6,8-dione) heterocycles are obtained in good yields. The nature of the alkyne moiety present in substrates dictates the mode of cyclization to form the furopyrimidine derivatives.
