Nazwa jednostki: Institute of Physical Chemistry PAS – Warsaw, Inne oferty z tego miasta »
Nazwa stanowiska: Student – Scholarship position
Wymagania:

• The candidate must be a chemistry student.
• Experience in laboratory work in the fields of inorganic, organic and coordination chemistry.
• Familiarity with handling air- and moisture-sensitive compounds using a Schlenk line and/or glovebox.
• Basic knowledge in spectroscopic methods.

Opis zadań:

The proposed project is aimed at advancing the fundamental knowledge of the synthesis and structure of homoleptic and heteroleptic metal-TEMPO complexes and their utilization to develop new reaction systems. Specific objectives include: i) development of a general non-redox synthesis of homo- and heteroleptic metal-TEMPO complexes, ii) analysis of the critical factors controlling the stability and structure of homoleptic and heteroleptic metal-TEMPO systems in photo-, thermo- and mechanochemically triggered conditions, iii) investigation on the reactivity of well-defined metal-TEMPO complexes toward model small molecules: CO2 and H2. The proposed investigations should provide a more in-depth mechanical understanding of the formation and reactivity of metal-TEMPO complexes in their initial and subsequent steps. Further studies involving CO2 and H2 should shed a light on the mechanism of their activation by metal-TEMPO systems, which may pave the way for developing novel well-defined stoichiometric and catalytic processes.
Key responsibilities include
Student will be responsible for the following research tasks:
a) Synthesis and characterization of commercially unavailable proligands,
b) Synthesis and characterization of homo- and heteroleptic complexes with selected redox active metal centers supported by TEMPO ligand.
