Delighted to share our work on the cyclotrimerization of tethered tetraynes to access para-diethynylbenzenes, recently out in Organic Letters. Many congratulations to Rajesh Chakrabortty and Tamal Ballav for their efforts. Please read it here. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
Sudipta & Aniruddha from our group have defended their Ph.D. thesis work on Nickel catalysis. We bid farewell and wish them well in their next position. Many thanks to the Examiners: Profs. Basker Sundararaju @IITKanpur; Ramesh Rasappan @tvmiiser & P. C. Ravikumar @IiserTirupati
Happy to share our recent work on "Nickel-Catalyzed Ortho-C(sp3/sp2 ) Functionalization of Free Halobenzoic Acids". Many congratulations to Aniruddha, Tamal, and our collaborator Prof. Michael Greaney, Univ. of Manchester. advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley…
Our follow-up full paper on the Nickel-Catalyzed Cyclotrimerization appeared online in Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis. Many Congratulations to Rajesh and Suman! Please read it here.

We disclosed a unique dearomative double Diels–Alder reaction of C-3-substituted indenes with benzyne to access a new class of bridged polycycles. Many congratulations to Tamal Ballav for completing the work single-handedly. thieme-connect.com/products/…
Recently, two of our group's star students, Krishna and Suman, defended their Ph.D. theses. We are so proud of their achievements over the years. Many congratulations and our best wishes to them. Many thanks to @ATBijuLab and @RambabuChegondi for conducting the Thesis defense.
Happy to share that Sudipta Ghosh from our group received the Oral Presentation Award at J-NOST 2025. He presented his work on Nickel-catalyzed Alkene-Aldehyde Coupling. Many Congratulations to him and a big thanks to @NOST_India and @IITISM_DHANBAD.
Delighted to share our recent work on Pd(0)-catalyzed (3+3) annulation involving vinylcyclopropanes. It is out now in ChemCatChem. Many Congratulations to Krishna and Sourav for their dedicated efforts. Please read the article here doi.org/10.1002/cctc.2025007…
Thrilled to share our recent work on Pd(0)-catalyzed (3+3) annulation of VCPs with boronic acid derivatives is now published in ChemCatChem. Big thanks to my supervisor @ganistry2002 @GroupGanesh for the support and @CompoSciTian_SM for cooperation 💐💐

Happy to share our work on Cu(I)-catalyzed C(sp2)-carboboration of 1,3-diynes, published in Chem. Commun. This method enables the precise introduction of multiple aryl groups on the 1,3-butadiene framework. Please read it here pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…
Check out our work on the Aryne Alder-Ene reaction of locked styrenes. The work also features a tandem ene/[4+2]/[4+2] reaction. It was not easy to control the reactivity. Many Congrats to Tamal and Srinath! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Happy to share our work on the Pd-Catalyzed Synthesis of Areno-Pentalenes published in Org. Lett. This method provides exclusive access to the unsymmetrically substituted congeners. Many Congrats to Sourav Mondal and Krishna Biswas for their hard work! pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.102…
Opened the account for 2025! Check out our invited review on "Advances in Accessing Rare Oxidation States of Nickel for Catalytic Innovation," published in Chem. Commun. Many Congratulations to Aankhi Khamrai and Sudipta Ghosh!! Please read it here... pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Department of Chemistry, IIT Kharagpur is getting ready to welcome the guests for MTIC-XXI. #mtic_iitkgp
Happy to share our work on Cu(I)-Catalysis for the Synthesis of Diene Diboronates, accepted in Adv. Synth. Catal. We could synthesize of hexa-(fully) substituted dienes with boron handles for functionalization. Congratulations to Suman, Rajesh Shailendra! doi.org/10.1002/adsc.2024011…
Sourav Mondal (@CompoSciTian_SM ), our group's first Ph.D. student, successfully defended his thesis. Many Congratulations to him! He is currently a postdoc in the Patil Group at IISc. We wish him good luck in his future endeavors!!
Happy to share our invited review contribution on the Ni-catalyzed [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization reaction, published in Eur. J. Org. Chem. Rajesh Chakrabortty and Suman Ghosh worked hard to put this collection together, Congratulations! Please read it here... chemistry-europe.onlinelibra…
Pleased to share our recent work on the Regioselective C(sp3)-Carboboration of 1,3-Diynes published in Org. Lett. This method serves as a route to fully substituted enynes. Many Congratulations to Suman, Shailendra, and Rajesh!! Please read it here pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Happy to share our work on Pd-catalyzed [3+2] addition of vinylcyclopropanes to coumarin esters. We construct up to 4 consecutive stereocenters. A thermodynamic controlled diastereoselectivity is described. Congratulations to @Krishnabiswas02 and Subrata!! doi.org/10.1021/acs.joc.4c00…
