Job OpeningsRadiosynthetic Chemists: Discovers and develops new synthetic and analytical routes and methods for the preparation, purification, and characterization of new and novel organic and bioorganic compounds. Designs and optimizes the chemical synthesis of a variety of carbon 14(C-14) and tritium (H-3) radio labeled organic compounds for commercial and research purposes. Conducts research, analysis, synthesis, and experimentation on radioactive compounds through multi-step chemical procedures that induce change in composition of substances using reactions involving heat, light, chemical reagents, and chemical catalysts. Conducts, develops and interprets analytical procedures for the purification and characterization of intermediaries and final products utilizing such techniques as chromatography, crystallization, distillation, spectroscopy, and liquid scintillation counting. Requirements: Masters in Chemistry & background in creating synthetic routes previously unknown or unreported organic and bioorganic compounds; use of radioisotopes, preparation of radio labeled organic compounds, purification and characterization techniques including chromatography, crystallization, distillation, spectroscopy, to create organic/bioorganic compounds.
