About this position

PhD opportunity in electrification of carbonylation reactions at the University of Toulouse, within the Doctoral School SDM – Materials Sciences and the Coordination Chemistry Laboratory (LCC-CNRS, Toulouse). The project is titled Electrification of Carbonylation Reactions and focuses on sustainable catalysis, electrosynthesis, hydroformylation, electrocatalysis, homogeneous catalysis, heterogeneous catalysis, CO2 utilization, and organometallic chemistry.

The thesis aims to develop a new generation of electrified carbonylation reactions by replacing dihydrogen with electrons from renewable electricity and using water as a proton source, with the longer-term goal of enabling CO2-derived carbon monoxide chemistry. The work combines experimental and theoretical approaches to understand mechanisms and optimize catalytic performance. The doctoral student will develop molecular and heterogeneous catalysts, design electrochemical devices, study intermediates using in situ and operando spectroscopy/electrochemistry/microscopy, and collaborate on theoretical chemistry calculations.

Supervision is shared by Maria Rosa Axet Marti (LCC-CNRS, Toulouse) with Sonja Pullen and Joost Reek at the University of Amsterdam. The PhD is an international joint project with a planned 6–12 month research stay in Amsterdam. The post highlights access to advanced facilities for catalyst synthesis, electrochemistry, materials characterization, and operando spectroscopy, plus training in scientific writing, communication, project management, and research integrity.

Eligibility: Master’s degree in Chemistry or a related field; background in catalysis, organometallic chemistry, materials chemistry, or electrochemistry preferred; strong analytical and experimental skills; good English; ability to work independently and in an international team.

Deadline: 23 November 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Start date: 1 September 2027. Apply via: the ADUM project portal.
