Abstract

RETRACTION REASON:


This article has been retracted at the request of the Publisher after the corresponding author informed that the article has been published anywhere. The article was initially submitted for publication in Asian Journal of Organic & Medicinal Chemistry. The article was checked for plagiarism and it was found that there exists 53%plagiarism. The review comments and plagiarism report were sent to the author and suggestions were made to revise the abstract and introduction part and resubmit the article. Author did not make any correspondance with the publisher to withdraw the article and without informing the publisher or the Editor-in-Chief he got his article published Asian Journal of Green Chemistry.


This is serious offense to the integrity of the scientific community and casts doubts on ethics of the article publication and is a misconduct by the author. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal.
