University of Delhi

Dr BK Singh joined the Department of Chemistry, University of Delhi as an Assistant Professor in 2010. Before joining Department of Chemistry he has visited Department of Chemistry, University of Leuven, Leuven, Belgium as International Scholar for the period November 2005-March 2007 where he has developed new strategies to carry out microwave reactions under simultaneous cooling. He, for the first time, has shown that microwave assisted reaction can be performed at 0 C. Along with the development of these new strategies, he has also provided the utility of simultaneous cooling while irradiating reaction with microwave irradiation. During this period he has also worked as Visiting Fellow at University of Ghent, Belgium for three months where in collaboration with Professor Christian Stevens from Department of Organic Chemistry Faculty of Bioscience Engineering, Ghent University, Belgium he has developed efficient scalability procedure for the industrial production of N- and O- arylated compounds using microreactor technology via copper (II) catalyzed cross-coupling reaction.

 

After finishing his PhD, Dr. Singh worked with University of Leuven as Associate academic staff with Professor Erik van der Eycken for the period May 2007-October 2009. During this period in collaboration with various groups at University of Leuven (Professor Marc De Maeyer from Laboratory for Biomolecular Modeling and Professor Zeger Debyser from Department of Molecular Medicine), Belgium, he has developed microwave-assisted protocol for the synthesis of a-Helix-memetic scaffold for protein-protein interaction.

 

During his PhD at the University of Delhi, with the group of Professor Virinder S. Parmar,Department of Chemistry, University of Delhi and in collaboration with Dr. Balaram Ghosh, Molecular Immunogenetics Laboratory, Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology, Delhi and Professor Hanumantharao G. Raj, Department of Biochemistry, V.P. Chest Institute, University of Delhi, he has synthesized various bioactive compounds particularly anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant.
