Polyferrocenylsilanes (PFSs) are a class of transition metal-containing polymers consisting of alternating ferrocene and organosilane units that have become readily available via the living anionic ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of monomeric silicon-bridged [1]ferrocenophanes. The discovery of living anionic ROP of sila[1]ferrocenophanes has not only yielded polyferrocene polymers with controlled molecular weight and low PDIs, but also, has allowed for access to a new class of block copolymers with transition metal centres in the main chain of one of the blocks. To date, PFS-based block copolymers remain the most extensively studied class of metallopolymers and have recently found utility in materials science. PFS block copolymers would be expected to self-assemble in selective solvents for one of the blocks to form polymeric micellar aggregates. The study of micellization behaviour to yield cylindrical micelles, has revealed that crystallization of PFS block is the driving force for the formation of semicrystalline cylindrical micelles.

Respected Madam,
Greetings and Good Day!
I am writing this e-mail to apply for a post-doctoral position in your research lab. Currently, I am Ph.D student of Department of Chemistry at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, India. I completed my Ph.D defence July 8th, 2016.
I have focused much on developing new synthetic boron-ruthenium metal clusters with chalcogenes and activation of small molecules through boron metal clusters. On the other hand, I have developed novel catalysts (Homogeneous) for synthesis and characterization of homo-polymers, co-polymers, like poly(lactic acid), poly(caprolactone), polyethers, polycarbonates, polyethylene and polypropylene. In addition, I have worked on several other research projects including heterogeneous catalysts for syntheses of an Internal electron donor to fine tune olefin polymerization activity.
I have gone through your research work and I find it very fascinating. While I am aware of the patience, perseverance and hard work required to succeed, I believe that I have the drive and motivation required for carrying out research in synthetic chemistry. I strongly believe that my experience, knowledge, and research skills in the area of synthetic organometallic and polymer chemistry would enable me as a valuable asset in your group. Herewith I am appending my curriculum vitae summery of my research work. If a postdoctoral position will be available in your laboratory, I would greatly appreciate your consideration of my application. Looking forward for a favourable reply and thanking you in advance.
