Missions

Recruited at CNRS, the recruited research will conduct reaction path explorations using DFT (or ab initio) calculations, for a set of metallo-catalysed iminosugar functionalisation reactions. The aim is to rationalise an ensemble of experimental observations, but also to intervene ahead of the experimental work (prediction of chemical reactivity/selectivity). This work will be conducted in interaction with an experimental group within IC2MP and a second one at Cergy University (ANR project Sweet_N_Fun). The recruited fellow will contribute to the ANR consortium animation, as well as to the daily animation of the research group. An intern mentoring activity is also possible.

Activités

- predict reactivity/selectivity of enamine reaction intermediates by conceptual DFT or QTAIM/ELF calculations;
- conduct explicit reaction path calculations (at DFT level) for an ensemble of pallado-catalysed C-H activation reactions on iminosugar derivatives, in pursuit of their diversification at C1 position;
- conduct an analogous study for Ni-catalysed reactions;
- contribute to the scientific animation of the Sweet_N_Fun ANR consortium;
- contribute to the scientific animation of the research group;
- present results in national and international conferences;
- contribute to the mentoring of students in research internships (from L3 to M2 level) and co-mentoring of PhD students.

Compétences

- PhD thesis in theoretical chemistry/molecular modeling with past experience in reaction path calculations or development and use of electron-density based indices (conceptual DFT, ELF/QTAIM topological analyses);
- skills in programming (python or any other language)

Contexte de travail

The work will be conducted at CNRS, within the Institute of Chemistry of Media and Materials of Poitiers (IC2MP - UMR CNRS 7285), in the Catalysis and non-conventional media team (https://ic2mp.labo.univ-poitiers.fr/en/actualites-english/). She/he will evolve within the "Applied quantum chemistry" group of IC2MP, and interact with two experimental teams involved in the Sweet_N_Fun ANR program (glycochemistry groups of IC2MP and BioCIS).

Contraintes et risques

Short missions planned for (inter)national conferences.
