NaNH2 as a Nitrogen Source and Base to Synthesize Triarylamines from Aryl Halides Using Pd-Catalyzed C–N Coupling
Triarylamines (TAAs) are excellent core structures for multifunctional materials. Reversible single-electron oxidation is the key to versatile applications. Synthesizing these from feedstock materials...

Pleased to share our recent work on phosphine ligand development has been published in @daltontrans.rsc.org (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...) and Inside Front Cover art too (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...); Grateful to my PI @chemrmitra.bsky.social, and Indian Institute of Technology Goa.
[Di(1-adamantyl)](aryl)phosphine ligands: synthesis, palladium complexation, and catalytic activity
P(1-Ad)2 (Ad = adamantyl) moiety-substituted quinoline, naphthyl, and isoquinoline ligands were synthesized to make Pd(ii) complexes with κ2-P^N/P^C coordination. Pd-based catalytic activity towards M...

Mentors can’t achieve your goals for you, but they can:
-help you focus on what you want to do
-inspire you to believe in what you are capable of doing
-offer practical supports to equip you for success
And we can each do these things for someone else.
