Applications are invited from highly motivated and eligible candidates for a Junior Research Fellow (JRF) position in a SERB funded project titled “Designing Bimetallic Complexes with Cooperative Metal-Metal Interactions for the Multi-electron Reduction of Small Molecules”.  

Objective:

• Synthesis of new bifunctional pincer ligands with disparate metal binding sites which are selective towards different metal ions.
• Study of complexation of the new ligands with transition metals. Complete characterisation of new metal complexes with usual spectroscopic methods (IR, UV-Vis, NMR, Mass, etc.) and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
• Investigation of reactivity of new metal complexes towards small molecules and catalytic applications in suitable reactions.

Qualification:

Essential Qualification: M.Sc. in Chemistry with valid CSIR-UGC NET or GATE score.

Desirable Qualification: Candidates with prior research experience can be given preference.

AKS participated in the 28th International Conference on Organometallic Chemistry (ICOMC-2018), held from 15th to 20th July 2018 at the Congress and Exhibition Centre, located in the City of Florence, Italy, and presented recent findings from our group in a presentation entitled “Pincer Ligands With Protic N-heterocyclic Carbene Donors And Their Transition Metal Complexes.”

Congratulations to Agnideep Das (IIT Indore), Vishal Budhija (IIT Indore) and Shambhu Deo Chandra (BIT Mesra) for succesfully defending their MSc Research Thesis and earning MSc degree. This is the first batch of students who did their MSc Research Project in AKS group.
