Postdoc of Chemistry – Organic Synthesis
Department of Chemistry Faculty of Science
University of Copenhagen
The position is in the field of organic synthesis in the group of Prof. Mogens Brøndsted Nielsen. The synthesis-driven project focuses on functional pi- conjugated molecules, and specifically polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons containing redox-active groups will be targeted. Stepwise synthesis protocols for constructing carbon nanosheets need to be developed and procedures for incorporating for example dithiafulvalene and tetrathiafulvalene redox groups at the periphery. The properties of the molecules will be studied by various methods, such as absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry.
The postdoc's duties will include research within organic synthesis as well as supervision of students. The post may also include performance of other duties.
