1,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, a surrogate for RP-3 fuel. A comprehensive experimental, computational and kinetic modeling of its pyrolysis. kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2…
I thought of publishing this in Current Science. Apparently, they do not publish anything other than Science. Indian Academy of Sciences has two other online Journals to cater to such articles. This one has just appeared in Confluence. confluence.ias.ac.in/trust-respect-…
2024 PCCP (Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics) outstanding peer reviewers. Pleased to be in this list. rsc.org/journals-books… via @RoySocChem
Recent deportation of Indians from US and some Indian parents opting for pre-mature deliver are very disturbing indeed. earunan.org/2025/02/08/eve…
@csit_iisertvm organized a Spectra 2025 conference dedicated to "Quantum Science & Applications" on 11 Jan 2025; experts talks by Prof. E Arunan, IISc Bangalore, Prof. Balanaraya, IISER Mohali, Prof. Anindya Datta, IIT Bombay, Prof. R. Swathi for the expert's insights.
Ten years ago today, Chemical and Engineering News featured carbon bond, discovered in 2013 by us confirmed within a few months by Prof. Guru Row. cen.acs.org/articles/92/i1…
I started writing a blog on family in May 2024 and finally finished it. I am convinced that as long as family structure survives humanity will survive. Let me wish everyone a very happy, healthy, peaceful, and prosperous 2025. earunan.org/2024/12/31/fam…
I am pleased to share this paper. IUPAC Recommendations: (Un)equivocal Understanding of Hydrogen and Halogen Bonds and Their (Un)equivocal Naming! | Crystal Growth & Design (acs.org)
A blog about my parents. My mother passed away in 2014 and my father passed away last week. I have been fortunate to have them in my life. earunan.org/2024/01/23/my-…

Solving the microwave spectrum of hydrogen sulphide dimer was a fitting finale for our quest to understand hydrogen bonding. NIST, Newcastle University and IISc How solving a 30 year-old chemistry problem led to an international collaboration (ncl.ac.uk)
Our comprehensive work on pyroysis of isopropylcyclohexane, an important component in several commercial fuels, has just appeared in Combustion and Flame. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
We have been supported by the Indo-French Centre for Promotion of Advanced Scientific Research for collaboration with University of Rennes, France. A video has been released by the funding agency recently. youtube.com/watch?v=vmKuSJ…
Coin has two sides. We humans have many and most every issue is complex. Recent events in IISc has been discussed in the media without a detailed analysis. Thought of sharing some of my views. earunan.org/2022/01/02/phy…
An interesting article on water that covers some of our work too. Statement attributed to me about H2S is not quite accurate. shaastramag.iitm.ac.in/special-featur…
Did the NLs know about this paper? Ramamurthi, N. ; Swaminathan, S. (1990) Proline-catalysed asymmetric annelations: a novel observation Indian Journal of Chemistry, 29 (5). pp. 401-404. nobelprize.org/prizes/chemist…
India depends on monsoon, which is rather unpredictable. Is it the reason for our fatalistic attitude and aversion to taking risk? earunan.org/2021/09/12/is-…
When alcohol and water form a complex, which would be the hydrogen bond donor? Microwave spectroscopy answers this question and reveals that pKa is a useful indicator. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
