Ajeet Chandra, Korea South
Dr. A. Chandra completed his doctoral program at the Department of Chemistry under the excellent supervision of Prof. J. N. Moorthy at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India. He started his career in research after a post-graduation specialization in organic chemistry by joining a doctoral program in the Department of Chemistry at IIT Delhi, India, and started exploring the area of peptide and dendrimer chemistry. Further, he moved to IIT Kanpur, and his doctoral program was in synthetic methodology using oxidizing hypervalent iodine (V) reagents, Oxone, etc. The substrates were employed for the oxidative transformations: olefins, indoles, thiols, naphthols, alcohols, etc. Afterward, he joined the IIT Bombay and explored the asymmetric synthesis using asymmetric amines and also novel aromatic heterocycles using the sulfonylphthalides at ambient temperature conditions. Presently, Dr. A. Chandra is appointed to a research professor position at the Department of Information Display at Kyung Hee University, Seoul. At this time, he is exploring the BODIPY- and MR-TADF-derived organic display materials. Currently, he is also developing the red and green display materials for the real display applications. He aimed to explore the highly efficient display materials for commercialization purposes. He has authored comparative organic chemistry books designed to support preparation for national exams (NET and GATE). Also planning to submit a manuscript for the international textbook in organic chemistry in the near future. The books have an interesting representation of the reaction mechanism, which can provide a better understanding to solve the complex problem of organic chemistry in an easier approach
