Profile:
Dr. Basharat Ali joined Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Basic Sciences (CIRBS), International
Islamic University, Islamabad in February 2021. He completed his PhD in Organic Chemistry from
HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry, ICCBS, University of Karachi. During his PhD he worked on
synthesis of hydrazones, thiosemicarbazides, 1,2,4-triazoles and other heterocyclic compounds. He
worked as Research Assistant at Department of Polymer Science and Engineering in Zhejiang
University, China. He worked on organometallic catalysis for polymer synthesis, and synthesis of
Organic Solar Cells. During Post-Doctorate in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry, Soochow
University, China he worked on synthesis of chemiluminescent dioxetane probes, fluorescent probes,
and synthesis of anthraquinone (Rhein and Emodin Natural Products) derivatives.
Research Interests and Focus:
My research focuses on design, synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of medicinally
important synthetic small molecules, particularly, in the field of heterocyclic chemistry. My research
focus also includes design and synthesis of probes for diagnosis of human diseases and detection of
toxic compounds and metals.
Research Grants:
