An EPSRC-funded postdoctoral research position is available in the area of computational analysis of complex reaction mechanisms, within the group of Dr Claire McMullin at the Â鶹´«Ã½. 

This project is part of a collaboration based at the Â鶹´«Ã½ on "Molecular s-block Assemblies for Redox-active Bond Activation and Catalysis: Repurposing the s-block as 3d-elements" with Professor Michael Hill (inorganic synthesis) and Dr Claire McMullin (inorganic computational).  

The computational research programme will support the inorganic synthetic Chemists as they explore the reactivity of unique tetrametallic alkali-metal/alkali-earth-metal complexes. 

This work builds upon the recent discovery from Hill et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2021, 143, 17851; DOI: 10.1021/jacs.1c09467), and the subsequent publications (Angewandte Chemie 2023, 62, e2022136; DOI: 10.1002/anie.202213670 and Chem. Commun. 2023, 59, 3846; DOI: 10.1039/D3CC007010C). 

The post holder will form part of an inorganic/computational team focused on studying, understanding and potentially devising new systems to further explore the redox nature of both the group 1 and group 2 metals within this tetrametallic system. 

This position will focus on the application of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations to map the mechanisms of the inorganic species, rationalising observed reactivity and predicting the viability of further synthesis. 

Detailed electronic structure calculations will also be required, using software packages such as NBO7, AIMAll and ORCA.

The successful candidate will hold a PhD, ideally in inorganic computational chemistry, and have experience calculating organometallic reaction mechanisms with DFT methods, as well as a track record of peer-reviewed publications.
