All the temperatures are in °C. All the melting points and boiling points are in °C and are uncorrected. 2. 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra were recorded either on Brucker WH-90, Brucker AC- 200 or DRX-500 spectrometer in CDCl3 containing TMS as an internal standard with chemical shift (8) expressed in ppm downfield from TMS. The following abbreviations are used: s = singlet, d=doublet, t= triplet, q= quartet, m= multiplet and b= broad. 3. Infrared spectra (v max in cm-1) were recorded as either thin film or nujol mull or in CHCl3 on Perkin-Elmer Infra-red 683 B or 160S FT IR spectrometer with sodium chloride optics. 4. Mass spectra were recorded at an ionization energy of 70eV on Finnigan MAT -1020, Automated GGMS instrument. 5. All solvents and reagents were purified and dried by standard procedures. All evaporations were carried out under reduced pressure on Buchi rotary evaporator. 6. TLC was carried out on silica gel plates prepared by spreading the slurry (in CCI4) and drying at room temperature. The plates were analysed by keeping in iodine chamber. 7. Microanalysis was carried out in the micro analytical section of NCL. 8. GLC was carried out on Hewlett Packard 5890. 9. Column chromatography was performed on silica gel (60-120 mesh). Petroleum ether refers to the fraction boiling in the range of 60-80 °C. 10. The compound numbers, scheme numbers and reference numbers given in each chapter refers to that particular chapter only.

Chapter I deals with the synthetic studies on angucyclines and contains three sections. Section A describes the synthesis of (+-)-brasiliquinone B. Section B contains attempted synthesis of brasiliquinone C and synthesis of (+-)-8-deoxybrasiliquinone B while section C deals with the synthetic approaches towards AH-1763 Ila. Chapter II deals with the studies towards synthesis of balanol, a novel protein kinase C inhibitor, which is subdivided into two sections. Section A covers literature review on balonol while section B describes synthesis of benzophenone precursor for balanol. Applications of heterogeneous catalysts for organic transformations are discussed in chapter III. This chapter is further divided into three sections. Section A deals with the regiospecific acylation of aromatics over hydrated zirconia whereas section B and C describe use of heterogeneous catalysts for oxidation reactions. Chapter I: Synthetic Studies on Angucycline Antibiotics This chapter is further divided into three sections. Section A: Synthesis of (t)-Brasiliquinone B Introduction Angucycline antibiotics are the class of benz(a)anthracene antibiotics possessing a typical tetracyclic structure having different groups at different positions. These are derived from the secondary metabolites of microorganisms. These compounds showed remarkable antimicrobial and antiviral activities. There are several reports on isolation and biological activities of these molecules but a very few attempts have been made to synthesize these bioactive molecules.
