Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are employed as nanoscale reaction vessels for the asymmetric oxa-Michael addition of 2'-hydroxychalcones. A systematic comparison of the catalytic activities of chiral phosphoric acid treated ferrite nanoparticles (chiral ferrites) has been studied for the synthesis of flavanones. Higher reactivity and selectivity with switching of enantiomers were observed when these chiral ferrites are inside the CNT channel.

The way the social media tools are strengthened with the impact of proliferating portable computing, wireless technologies, and other web application, have re-designed how information is generated, communicated and consumed in an academic library. The paper examines the extent to which social media tools impact the most on libraries of engineering colleges of Odisha. An online survey has been conducted by sending online questionnaires librarians affiliated to Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT), Odisha.
