Synthetic Chemistry (metals) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 11 Synthetic Chemistry (metals) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

PhD in Chemistry: Computer simulation of metal-amyloid interaction and its role in plaque formation

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the greatest healthcare challenges facing 21st century society. AD is associated with formation of fibrils and plaques in brain tissue that impair proper functioning of neurons. Read more

PhD in Chemistry: Asymmetric catalysis using environmentally benign calcium complexes

Dr Ben Ward http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/people/view/38527-ward-benjamin is looking for a PhD student to work on the research project ’Asymmetric catalysis using environmentally benign calcium complexes’. Read more

Cooperative catalysis using iron-based Organometallic frustrated Lewis pairs

Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) has led to major advances in the field of small molecule activation and catalysis, being considered as one of the most exciting modern-day developments in main group chemistry. Read more

Bond Activation with Main Group Bimetallic Bonds

A PhD studentship is available in the group of Dr Stephanie Urwin (School of Chemistry, The University of Edinburgh; https://www.chem.ed.ac.uk/staff/academic-staff/dr-stephanie-j-urwin. Read more

Reaction Monitoring and Structural Characterisation of Coordination Driven Self-Assembled Systems by Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

Can you envisage a world where building a new catalyst or an artificial enzyme is like following an architectural plan for building a house? This is difficult as we don't even fully understand the construction materials! We research the properties of molecular building-blocks and their "constructed" aggregates, towards drawing up these type of blueprints. Read more

PhD in Chemistry: Applications of main group Lewis acids in synthetic organic chemistry

Applications of main group Lewis acids in synthetic organic chemistry. This project will investigate the use of boron or aluminium Lewis acids in transformations typically catalysed by transition metals. Read more

Improving the separation and purification of high technology lanthanides (ref: SF22/HLS/APP/LEWIS)

Lanthanides (or ‘rare earths’) are widely used as key components in high technology devices, including smart phones, digital cameras, computer hard disks, fluorescent and light-emitting-diode (LED) lights, flat screen televisions, computer monitors, high performance magnets and electronic displays.
