About this position

CNRS is advertising a PhD position at the Institut Lavoisier de Versailles in Versailles, France.

The project is in organic synthesis, catalysis, and heterocycles, with a specific focus on the synthesis of enantioenriched heterocycles by inserting carbon atoms bearing a stereogenic center or axis through asymmetric catalysis. This is a strong fit for students interested in synthetic chemistry, stereoselective methods, and heterocyclic compound design.

The thesis will be carried out in a well-equipped facility at the Lavoisier Institute. The post mentions recently renewed instrumentation including a 600 MHz NMR, HRMS, and chiral HPLC, with additional equipment such as GCMS and a glove box planned.

Eligibility: applicants should hold a Master’s degree or equivalent in Chemistry or Environmental Science. A basic level of French is required. The post indicates that no prior research experience is necessary.

Funding: the position is linked to Horizon Europe - ERC support and is a full-time temporary doctoral contract.

Deadline: 2 October 2026, 23:59 UTC.

How to apply: submit your application via the CNRS vacancy page. The post also provides an Euraxess link for viewing or applying.
