[RuIII(pac)(OOH)]2j, [RuIV(pac)(OH)]j and [RuV(pac)(O)]j, and their reactivity towards oxidation of cysteine and azo-dye. Helical chirality induction of expanded porphyrin analogues Jun-Ichiro Setsune . 1151–1163 Based on the fact that binding chiral ligands cause excess of unidirectional helical chirality in the cyclooctapyrrole O1 with 32p-cycloconjugation, helical chirality induction in the CuII complexes of cyclooctapyrrole O2 with interrupted p-conjugation and the dinuclear CoII complexes of cyclotetrapyrroletetrapyridine O3 is demonstrated. Organometallic complexes of the platinum metals: Synthesis, structure, and catalytic applications M = H, Cl M Piyali Paul and Samaresh Bhattacharya . 1165–1173 C H If an alkyl or aryl CjH bond of a judiciously chosen ligand is brought in close C proximity to a platinum metal-bound hydride or chloride by coordination I II through regular donor atoms (as in I), then facile activation of that CjH bond takes place leading to the formation of cyclometallated species (II). Digestive ripening: a synthetic method par excellence for core– shell, alloy, and composite nanostructured materials Srilakshmi P Bhaskar and Balaji R Jagirdar. 1175–1180 Solvated Metal Atom Dispersion method in combination with digestive ripening process is presented as a powerful synthetic method for realizing highly monodisperse metal, core–shell, alloy, and composite nanoparticles. Electronic structures of ruthenium complexes encircling non- innocent ligand assembly Amit Das, Dipanwita Das, Tanaya Kundu and Goutam Kumar Lahiri. 1181–1189 The sensitivity concerning the electronic structural aspects of the ruthenium complexes with non-innocent ligands (L) in accessible redox states could be convincingly addressed via the critical and collective analysis of crystal structures, magnetism, spectroelectrochemistry in combination with DFT calculations. 1137 1138 Contents Simple tertiary phosphines to hexaphosphane ligands: Syntheses, transition metal chemistry and their catalytic applications Maravanji S Balakrishna, Sowmya Rao and Bimba Choubey . 1191–1204 Studies on synthesis, transition metal chemistry and catalytic applications of several phosphorus-based ligands have been presented.

Copper complexes were found to cleave the plasmid DNA as well showed toxicity to HeLa and MCF–7 cell lines, suggestive of apoptotic cell death. Dinuclear complexes do bind better than the mononuclear ones.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE International Seminar on Recent Advances in Chemistry and Material Sciences (2021), Young Scientist Conclave (2021) & Student Science Meet (2021) The 160th Birth Anniversary Celebration of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray 01-03 & 07-08 August, 2021 iii FOREWORD “International Seminar on Recent Advances in Chemistry and Material Sciences (2021), Young Scientist Conclave (2021) & Student Science Meet (2021)” is being organized by the Indian Chemical Society to commemorate the 160th Birth Anniversary of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray, the doyen of Chemical Sciences in India. This is 16th in the series of Symposium, the first one was held in 2006, as a part of Birth day celebration of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray, founder President of the Indian Chemical Society. The Indian Chemical Society, one of the oldest learned bodies of our national pride was established on May 09, 1924. Acharya P. C. Ray, after returning from Edinburgh first joined the Presidency College, Kolkata in 1889 and later in 1916, joined the Department of Chemistry, newly formed University College of Science, University of Calcutta as the Palit Professor of Chemistry. Acharya Ray was intimately associated with the Indian Chemical Society till the last breath. The school of modern chemical research established by Acharya Ray in the University College of Science, where he used to live in the later part of his life, subsequently spread over the entire country through his many illustrious disciples. Acharya Ray had always strongly advocated for effective interactions between industries and academia. He himself was the founder of Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray was born on August 02, 1861.
