Report on "Enantio and Diastereoselective reactions for CSIR/ NET/ SET/GATE’’
Department of Chemistry, School of Applied Sciences, REVA University, Bangalore, Organized Lecture on Report on Enantio and Diastereoselective Reactions for CSIR/ NET/ SET/GATE’’ on 17th MAY 2020 at 10.30 AM to 12:05 PM through Webinar Video Meetings.
Resource Person: Dr. Venkatesh M A
Postdoctoral fellow NCBS Bangalore,
Founder and instructor of CSIR/ NET/ SET/GATE
Coaching center for chemical sciences
Dr. Venkatesh M A is a renowned scientist and trainer for all competitive exams related to Chemistry. He visited many times to our REVA University and engaged multiple lectures on CSIR-Chemical sciences with different topics. M.Sc. students are inspired by Dr. Venkatesh talk and he encouraged the students to crack CSIR exam.
He explained the basics of Stereochemistry, assign R S configuration, Preparation of compounds by Stereoselective methods, the role of reagent and substrate selectivity during the reaction, coated multiple examples for predicting the Stereocenter after completion of the reaction, Importance of Stereoselective reactions, and also discussed about an assymetric sharpless epoxidation process. The guest lecture was an interactive session between the students, faculty members and the resource person. At the end of the session, the speaker answered for many questions raise by students and faculties The lecture comprised of the career orientation for the students after PG course. Students were briefed about the various career opportunities like research, industrial jobs, and entrepreneurships which are available after post-graduation. The lecture was attended by all 2nd and 4 semester students, research scholars and faculty of chemistry REVA University.
