About

I am Dr. E. Poonguzhali, working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Chemistry, National Institute of Technology Puducherry, Karaikal.

The area of interest is to develop a green methodology to replace the hazardous methodology.

For developing the green methodology, synthesize novel environmentally favored organometallics / degradable Ionic Liquids as catalysts, and water / neat conditions are going to be utilized.

To confirm the reaction pathway/structural confirmation/compounds stabilities, the NMR, and EPR spectroscopy as well as computational studies are going to be used.

As per my research interest, on Dec 10, 2022, my patent grant (Patent Grant no. 384111) came which is the development of a green methodology for synthesizing the sulfur compounds from commercially available starting materials using water medium, room temperature, and open-air atmosphere. This work was published through DST - Twitter, Facebook, Times of India, Dinamani, Dinamalar, ETV, News18, etc., due to their environmental pollution control application.
