PhD project: Construction of N-trifluoromethylated compounds as new building blocks in life science from azidofluoroalkanes Full-time NEW

Organic azides play a crucial role in chemistry and biochemistry due to their unique reactivity and versatility. Organic fluorinated azides are derivatives of azidoalkanes developed by us recently.1-3 In this project we will study their transformation to N-trifluoromethylated amides and properties and derivatization of those amides, in order to discover new reactivity and prepare new building blocks for life science.
