Chemical sciences hold a unique position among the different disciplines in science.
Frequently it merges with other disciplines such as biology, pharmacy, physics and
engineering. As a resul, the overlapping region productively gives huge impact on
human mankind. Chemical science embodies many branches of research pursuit such as
organic, inorganic and physical chemistry as major one. In addition, the progress of
research in chemical sciences has been phenomenal leading to emergence of many sub-
disciplines such as natural product chemistry (discovery of lead molecules), material
chemistry (hybrid materials), nanomedicines and drug delivery, alternative energy
source (renewable energy), green chemistry (improved security in chemical industries).
The pioneering work by Acharya Prafulla Chandra Roy in the early 20th century in
Kolkata made U-turn in chemistry in the Indian subcontinent. At early stage, generally,
the Indian chemists were involved in doing research in the chemistry of alkaloids,
terpenes, flavones and steroids (Natural product chemistry). Research in natural
product chemistry plays a significant role as it immensely help to discover a lead
compound or new efficient drug molecules for human health. Noteworthy work was
carried in the country on terpenes (Shuk Dev and his co-workers for Longifolene
chemistry which enriches the perfume industry in India), synthetic dyes (K.
Venkataraman) in textile industry, isolation and detailed structural characterization of
azadirachtin, obtained from the seeds of neem plant (T. R. Govindachari). A remarkable
research output on natural product chemistry division has already been made and still
there is a chance for great opening and learning in the field of new drug molecules. The
Indira Gandhi National Tribal University is situated in the field of millions medicinal
plants near the Amarkantak, MP. The time has come now for doing research with
medicinal plants in scientific manner and how to translate to the recent era (Traditional
to translational) for the betterment of human health. A full session will be discussed the
research output on recent trends in natural product chemistry in Indian subcontinent.
Definitely, by gathering the intellectuals and chemists and also other researchers from
Concept Note & Thrust Areas

different sub-disciplines in chemical sciences greatly emphasizes to make a blue print
for further art of research on Natural Product Chemistry.
Furthermore, research in solid state chemistry, surface science, material chemistry are
being actively pursued in Indian subcontinent, a considerable appreciation note to the
international community has been received for the pioneering work of C.N.R. Rao and
his co-workers. The proposed three day National Symposium also discuss the current
effort on hybrid materials and it’s application, particularly, better materials for energy
storage and alternative energy sources.
The year 2017, the chemical community is celebrating the century of highest
recognition, Nobel award by Haber for the discovery of Haber process to manufacture
ammonia in pilot scale which unambiguously brings a revolutionary arena in agriculture.
The catalysis field, organometallic reagents and it’s application in organic molecules,
synthesis of several important synthons for pharma industries has driven an significant
position at international level by Indian chemists. As a result, the fine chemicals and
pharmaceutical industries have registered an export market of US $3.5 billion
accounting for 11% of the total export from India. The community deals with great
challenges to design a practical and cost effective catalytic system
(heterogeneous/homogeneous or racemic/asymmetric version) for the synthesis of
bioactive molecules and other fine chemicals. Development of detectors/sensors to
sense emerging pollutants, biological or radiological materials is also a great interest to
chemical community. The overall fruitful discussion and knowledge sharing with young
generations on the topic asymmetric synthesis and catalysis along with applications in
diverse fields in one umbrella would be great advantages for the future aspect.
Last few decades, Green chemistry embodies a major area of research in chemical
sciences which helps to improving security in chemical industries by using alternate
environmentally friendly technology, non-toxic chemicals, use of green solvents and
renewable or alternate energy sources. Discussion on green chemistry between expert
scholars in Indian subcontinent and newcomer students helps enormously to outline for
the sustainable development.

We, the organizing committee believe that the proposed three days National
Symposium on “Recent Trends in Chemical Sciences” organized by Department of
Chemistry, Indira Gandhi national tribal university , Amarkantak, MP, bring a healthy
and competitive research environment among young chemists on the selected emerging
topics for the development of society.
