Synthetic Chemistry (work) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 84 Synthetic Chemistry (work) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

High-throughput solid state synthesis of functional inorganic materials for net zero applications

The discovery of new functional materials to drive technologies for the net zero transition, such as batteries, solar absorbers, rare-earth-free magnets for wind power and a myriad of other unmet needs, is a scientific and societal grand challenge. Read more

Synthesis of Novel Organic Probes for the Study of Lipid-Lipid Interactions

Lipids are diverse and principal components of the cell and are involved in a vast array of processes ranging from their well-known structural importance in cell membranes, through to energy storage and participation in signalling pathways. Read more

Development of a DNA amplification-free assay for pathogen detection

Applications are invited for a funded PhD position in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham. The School of Chemistry is keen to achieve a gender and diversity balance across the School and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds. Read more

Discovery of Functional Inorganic Materials for Net Zero Applications using High-Throughput Synthesis

This project will use high-throughput solid state synthesis methods developed in the group (Hampson 2023) to accelerate the discovery of new functional inorganic (oxide) materials for applications towards net zero technologies e.g. Read more

High Entropy 2D Materials for Efficient Water Splitting - Postgraduate Research Teaching Associate (PGRTA) Scholarship

We invite applications for a fully-funded Ph.D. position to conduct cutting-edge research in the field of high entropy 2D materials for water splitting, building upon our recent publications in the field (Chemistry of Materials 35 (19), 7904-7914; Advanced Science, 2204488). Read more

Development of new retrosynthetic disconnections through radical-nucleophilic substitution

Background. Nucleophilic substitution is arguably the most important class of reaction in organic synthesis. Indeed, these reactions are used every day to synthesise new pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers and natural products. Read more

Stereoselective synthesis of mechanically chiral molecules for sensing and catalysis

Background – the stereoselective synthesis of mechanically chiral molecules. The stereoselective synthesis of chiral organic molecules is one of the core challenges in synthetic organic chemistry. Read more

Vitamin B12 conjugates for the targeted uptake of antibiotics

About the Project. Join us in the innovative project “Developing vitamin B. 12. conjugates for the targeted uptake of antibiotics in resistant Gram-negative pathogens”. Read more

Mechanochemical Preparation of Biodegradable Pharmaceuticals

Twin-screw extrusion (TSE) has been demonstrated as an excellent means of industrialising mechanochemistry (instigation of a chemical reaction by mechanical energy, in the absence of solvents), overcoming the barriers involved in batch processing (such as ball milling) such as scalability and reaction temperature control. Read more

Understanding decoupled electrochemistry for energy storage, conversion and electrosynthesis

Background. Decoupled electrochemistry is broadly the process of using a mediating chargeable redox species to drive an electrochemical process with a freely dispersed catalyst instead of a reaction directly at an electrode. Read more
