FOREWORD
The Biennial Report period (2003-2005) is significant for t he Indian Inst it ut e
of Chemical Technology in several ways. Th e In st i t u t e cel eb r at ed i t s Di amo n d
Jubilee during 2003-04 and in addit ion t o t he review of progress done by t he lab
from Golden Jubilee t o Diamond Jubilee period, t he report also t hrows light on t he
Inst it ut es mid per formance of t he 10t h Five-Year Plan (2002-07) during 2003-04.
The Inst i t ut e cel ebrat ed i t s Di amond Jubi l ee i n a bi g way wi t h speci al
programmes / semi nars / workshops/ t rai ni ng courses/ l ect ures organi zed duri ng
t he report ing period and covered in a chapt er separat ely in t his report .
I t ook over as Direct or w.e.f. Oct ober, 2003 from Dr. K.V. Raghavan who served
as Direct or for 7 years w.e.f. Januar y 11, 1996. I proposed a road map for t he Inst it ut e
t o achi eve excel l ence i n i nnovat i on and di scovery dri ven research i n heal t hcare,
indust rial research, st rat egic mat erials, et c; our effort s are bearing fruit now and t here is improvement in Inst it ut es
overall performance. The year 2004-05 has been an excellent year for us, since IICT st ood first amongst CSIR labs in
Pat ent s Filed (62), Pat ent s Grant ed (56), Scient ific Papers Published (408) and Ext ernal Cash Flow (Rs. 18.5 crores). The
Inst i t ut e i ni t i at ed mega proj ect s (2003-05) duri ng t he peri od and pl ayed maj or rol e as nodal l aborat ory f or CSIR
Net work Proj ect s, (a) Developing Green Technologies for Organic Chemicals and (b) Globally Compet it ive Chemicals,
Processes and Product s. A separat e chapt er gives det ails of t he CSIR Net work Proj ect s.
In anot her maj or i ni t i at i ve, Gover nment of AP sought IICTs sci ent i f i c exper t i se and desi gn engi neer i ng
capabilit ies t o set up a Biot echnology Incubat ion Cent re (BTIC) at Genome Valley near Hyderabad. Depart ment of
Biot echnology (DBT) is also suppor t ing t he proj ect . Some of t he ot her maj or proj ect s under t aken and successfully
compl et ed duri ng t he per i od are: TBBA (Sol ar i s Chemi cal s), HFC-134a (SRF, Navi n), Haf ni um (NFC), DME (IOC),
Esfenvalerat e (RPGLS), Degumming of rice bran oil (TMOP), Gas Cracker PP (GAIL). IICT also at t ract ed maj or overseas
client s like Aisin Cosmos (Japan), Glaxo Smit hkline (UK), Du Pont (USA), Givaudan (Swit zerland) for cust om synt hesis
and ot her collaborat ive proj ect s.
The Inst it ut e creat ed t he maj or facilit ies such as (a) Cent re for Analysis of Chemical Toxins (CACT) wit h t wo
GC-MS and GC inst rument (b) Pre-Biot echnology Incubat ion Cent re (PBPC) and (c) High Resolut ion Mass Spect romet er.
In addit ion, a high pressure cat alyt ic vapour phase react or wit h dat a acquisit ion syst em and a high pressure bat ch
react or syst em was procured. Also, GC-MS & Trackphere at t he Pheromone Cent re, Table Top X-ray Diffract omet er
wit h aut o sampler & Ion Chromat ograph wit h a special feat ure of having on-line analysis were inst alled.
In brief, IICTs per formance during t he report ing period has encouraged us t o go for successful complet ion
of 10t h Five-year Plan Programmes. I acknowledge and congrat ulat e t he Business Management Division t o bring
out t he report t o t he current shape in t he short est possible t ime and t he excellent support provided by t he Research
Management & Informat ion Management Divisions and t he concerned R&D and ot her Depart ment s.

*Extraction and Isolation of Novel Synergistic
Anti-cancer Chemical Composition from Cedar
wood(US patent No. 6649650* ).
Cedar wood(Cedrus deodara), a commercial source for
cedar wood oi l i s di scovered as a source of a novel
synergist ic lignan mixt ure of non volat ile compounds
f or ant i cancer act i vi t y. The nonvol at i l e f r act i on i s
essent ially found t o be a mixt ure of t hree lignans, (-)-
mat airesinol, (-)-nort rachelogenin and a dibenzylbut y-
rol act ol l i gnan. These t hr ee comp ounds const i t ut e
about 3-4% of t he dri ed wood. Furt her when t hese
t hree compounds when t est ed over various cancer cell
lines, individually t hey are act ive only on one or t wo cell
l i nes. As mi xt ure t hey are f ound t o be act i ve over a
wide range of cell lines and also more effect ive on each
of t he cel l l i nes. Based on t hi s observat i on a process
has been developed t o isolat e t he lignan mixt ure where
t he mi xt ure of t he t hree l i gnans cont ri but e t o >96%
and present in a rat io of approximat ely 10:80:10. The
impurit y profiling shows t hat t hese t hree compounds
are responsible for t he biological act ivit y. It is also found
t hat t hese t hree compounds are present in t his rat io in
t his plant . A process is developed for t he ext ract ion of
t his lignan mixt ure from t he plant which is commercially
viable and involves no chromat ography. The LD50 value
is found t o be >2200mg/ Kg wit h signs of init ial sedat ion.
It is licensed t o M/ S Indigene Pharmaceut icals Lt d., USA
and furt her development al work is in progress.
