PhD in Chemistry - Synthesis, Catalysis and Mechanisms in York United Kingdom | University of York

Our research specializes in creating novel techniques for molecular synthesis with uses across organic, inorganic, and biological chemistry. What sets us apart is our foundation in fundamental, mechanism-driven investigations that integrate experimental, spectroscopic, and computational methods. Our diverse, cutting-edge work encompasses: Core research in transition metal catalysis Mechanistic physical organic chemistry Studies on prebiotic chemistry and life's origins Targeted molecular synthesis Macrocyclic compounds Reaction optimization through data analysis Organometallic chemistry of main group elements Our practical research initiatives tackle worldwide issues including antimicrobial resistance, environmental cleanup, and sustainable development. We maintain robust collaborations with pharmaceutical and agricultural chemical sectors.
