Project Title: Cooperative chalcogen bonding catalysis
Description:
Chalcogen atoms can act as electrophilic or nucleophilic species based on their nature and substitution. Precise consideration of these characteristics allows for designing an on-goal targeted class of chiral organocatalysts. This project should focus on designing a cooperative type of organocatalysis that combines electrophilic and nucleophilic activation patterns within of novel organocatalyst developed in our laboratory.
Requirements for applicant:
- completed doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in the field of organic chemistry (experience with organocatalysis is advantageous),
- experience in the field of organic chemistry, especially in methodology development or total synthesis,
- active English skills (proficiency in spoken and written English),
- prerequisites for research work (patience, persistence, and passion towards long-term goals in research),
- flexibility, great diligence, thoroughness, and responsibility,
- good organizational and communication skills,
- ability to work both independently and in a team,
- high motivation and hardworking,
- strong willingness to learn new things continuously.
Salary: Co-funding is ensured and dependent on the candidate’s proficiency/experience
