Research Associate - Chemical Synthesis (Fixed Term)
Applications are invited for a post-doctoral research associate to work on a project under the supervision of Professor Steven Ley. Research will be conducted using combinations of modern batch and flow methods in one of several areas including developing methods to reliably couple 5- and 6- membered heterocycles, adding functionality to aromatic heterocycles, and to functionalise or construct aliphatic and saturated heterocycles. Methods for conducting sp2-sp3 coupling reactions are of particular interest.
Applicants should have (or be about to obtain) a PhD in synthetic organic chemistry. Experience in modern synthetic techniques, and the ability to initiate and develop new methods, are essential whilst skills in flow based chemical synthesis would be highly desirable.
