PhD studentship:

ORGANIC SYNTHESIS AND CATALYSIS - New methodologies in enantioselective catalysed C-C bond formation.

This project will develop new and robust catalytic methods for the enantioselective addition of readily available nucleophiles to carbonyl compounds under mild conditions that allow their implementation in industrial processes.

We are looking for a candidate with a Bachelor or Master degree in a relevant subject related to chemistry. Candidates must have good qualifications. Excellent lab skills and background in organic synthesis are essential.
