UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 or Level 2, UCD School of Chemistry, Temporary 6 month post (potentially renewable for a further 12 months)

Applications are invited for a temporary post of a UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 or Level 2 within within UCD School of Chemistry. 

A postdoctoral research position supported by Science Foundation Ireland is available for a period of 6 months which may be potentially renewable for a further 12 months. The start date for the position is as soon as possible. We invite applications to work on a project to synthesise reactive phosphorus compounds and study their application in C–F bond activation and other related reactions. The successful applicant will synthesise and characterise novel low-valent phosphorus-based molecular species and study their properties and reactivity. The activity of these species towards the activation of organofluorine compounds will then be assessed with the long-term goal of creating main groups catalysts for C–F activation and the scale-up of these processes. There will be the opportunity to interact with colleagues from the UCD School of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering as part of this project.
