Jun 2014 - Sept 2014
RSC Summer Studentship In my most recent summer I carried out research for 10 weeks on an RSC summer studentship bursary within the Hall group at Newcastle University. We synthesised a number of novel BODIPY dyes for application in medical imaging. This work will be published in the near future. I learned a range of synthetic techniques in addition to what I had learned in teaching labs including air and moisture sensitive steps. Vacuum line techniques and purification by column chromatography and recrystalisation. (Solvent selection by TLC plate tests.) Analytical skills including submitting NMR experiments and interpretation of spectra.(1H, 13C, 19F and 11B NMR, DEPT, COSY, NOESY)
