ICIQ
The Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (ICIQ) is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to join the Ballester research group. This position will be co-funded by the State Research Agency/Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.ICIQ is one of the world’s internationally recognized leading institutions in the field of chemistry committed to solving major social and economic challenges by conducting top quality research in three main areas: Sustainable Catalysis, Renewable Energy and Health. The institute also aims at training the future generation of scientists by offering high-quality educational programs to master, PhD students and postdoctoral researchers (full details on ).Description of the project: The project aims to self-assembling large molecular cages based on dynamically covalent imine bonds. We propose the study and characterization (kinetically and thermodynamically) of the complexes formed by cages with polar, neutral and ionic compounds both in organic solvents and in water. Finally, we aim at including chemical reactions in the prepared cages to evaluate the acceleration levels achieved by their enzyme-like properties in converting bimolecular reactions into unimolecular counterparts upon substrates’ binding.Responsibilities
