- Studies on the synthesis and chemical reactivity of the proposed organometallic compounds using Schlenk techniques in an inert atmosphere and glove boxes.

- Studies on chemical reactivity, characterization of prepared metal precursors and catalysts, using single-crystal X-ray crystallography, UV-vis, NMR, IR, mass spectrometry, etc.

- Validation and refinement of scientific working hypotheses and analysis of obtained scientific data.

- Teamwork and the ability to assist and collaborate with other members of the Research Group.

- Appropriate literature review in the research field to be developed.

- Representation of the Research Group by participating and presenting the obtained results at scientific meetings and conferences.

- Undertaking short research stays abroad depending on the progress of the research.

- Collaboration in the writing and preparation of reports and manuscripts on research findings.

Master's in Applied Materials Chemistry and previous experience related to organometallic chemistry and functions to be developed.
