Research summary
AI-generated

Mandeep Kaur Hunjan works in organic chemistry, focusing on developing new chemical reactions to build nitrogen-containing ring compounds (heterocycles) such as pyrroles, indoles, and pyridines, which are common building blocks in pharmaceuticals and dyes. Much of this work involves finding milder, more selective, or more environmentally friendly ways (e.g., using water as solvent, or radical-based reactions) to attach new chemical groups onto these ring systems. The research also touches on related topics like degrading pharmaceutical pollutants in water and determining molecular structures using crystallography.

Publication output has been modest but fluctuating, with a peak of six papers in 2021, a dip in 2024, and continued activity through 2025-2026.
