Such complexes show enormous implications in Lewis-acid catalysis due to the inherent positive charge on the donor site of the ligand. In this direction, we have pioneered the nucleophilic behaviour of Ge(II) diction and Sb(I) monocation. We have also established the case of cooperative interaction between two proximally located Ge(II) cations enabling the elusive organic transformation.\u00a0The\u00a0electronic fine-tuning achieved through our\u00a0ligand\u00a0design strategy has led\u00a0to\u00a0the\u00a0rare coordination of Sn(II) with Au(I) ion.<sup>[4]<\/sup> We have also been interested in\u00a0the\u00a0organometallic approach towards\u00a0the\u00a0preparation of\u00a0anode\u00a0material for lithium ion\u00a0battery. We have developed\u00a0the\u00a0synthesis of multi-functionalized carbon\u00a0materials\u00a0from small molecule through carbonization which exhibited outstanding\u00a0anode\u00a0performance in lithium-ion\u00a0battery. Glimpses of our ongoing efforts will be discussed.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Bibliography:\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[1] R. K. Raut, M. Majumdar*,\u00a0<em>Chem.
