This course on "Chemistry of Main Group Elements" focuses on the chemistry of s- and p-block elements, structure and bonding concepts and systematic understanding of their chemical reactivity. Organometallic chemistry of main group elements with special emphasis on their applications in organic synthesis is also included in the discussion. Various applications of main group elements and their compounds is also added into the lectures.
Prof. M.S. Balkrishna joined the Department of Chemistry in 1996. He taught inorganic chemistry, molecular spectroscopy, organometallic chemistry of main group elements to UG, PG and Ph.D. scholars. His Research interests: Main group and transition metal chemistry, Organophosphorus chemistry, homogeneous catalysis and biological applications of copper(I) complexes. He Published 170 research papers and supervised 18 Ph.D. and at present 10 doctoral students and 2 PDFs are working in the group.
