Research Summary
Dr. Nagendra has been working on the design and synthesis of some novel peptidomimetics and related intermediates. His expertise led to the insertion of thioamide linkage 1,3,4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4-thiadiazole, Triazole, Tetrazole, Urea, Thiourea, Selenourea, glycosylated amides etc into the peptide backbone. He was involved in the total synthesis of Cyclosporin-O an immunosuppressive drug and also design of Ugi-MCR reactions. He successfully completed the synthesis of therapeutic analogues for lobeline and 241D towards tobacco cessation and their evaluation, synthesis of new anti cancer agents to inhibit EGFR and AKT.
