Dr. Arkadiusz Zych from the Italian Institute of Technology in Genoa joins us as a post-doc on a project in collaboration with the team of Prof. H. Cramail (LCPO, University of Bordeaux) in the frame of the PPM research program.
Welcome Arek !!!
Our article entitled “Dual Photoredox Nickel-catalyzed Silylation of Aryl/ heteroaryl Bromides using Hydrosilanes” has been accepted for publication in ChemComm.
Congratulations Shuai !!
Here is the group picture 2023 !!
On the 19th of July, Shuai Liu defended his PhD thesis entitled “Radical-mediated C-H and Si-H Functionalization to construct C-C/C-N/C-Si Bonds” in front of a jury composed of Prof. I. Gillaizeau (U. Orléans), Dr. E. Magnier (U. Versailles Saint-Quentin en Yvelines), Dr. M. Donnard (U. Strasbourg), and Prof. B. Bibal (U. Bordeaux).
After the PhD thesis, Prof. Gillaizeau, Dr. E. Magnier and, Dr. Donnard gave stimulating lectures, respectively on enamides/ynamides, fluorine and organosilicon chemistry.
Congratulations Shuai !! We wish you good luck for the future.
Our paper entitled “Iron-Catalyzed Oxidative Decarboxylation of Oxamic Acids: A Safe and Efficient Photochemical Route to Urethanes” has been accepted for publication in Synlett.
Congratulations to Gülbin and Jonathan for this nice work.
The article is now officially qualified for the SYNLETT Best Paper Award competition (more information can be found here: http://bit.ly/thieme-bpa). Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
Clement Poittevin, currently a Senior scientist at OmegaChem in Quebec was interviewed. After a PhD in our group, he moved to the Deslonchamp group as a post-doc before to be hired by Omegachem.
in 2020 he won a prize for innovation in recognition of his work on total synthesis.
Congratulations Clément !!!

This monday july 17th 2023, Lucile presented her work on polyethylene deconstruction at the PPM progress meeting at the ICMCB
This thursday, June 22nd we had the pleasure to welcome Prof. Richmond Sarpong from the University of Berkeley (USA) in the frame of the INC Ambassador’s program. Richmond presented an enlightening lecture, entitled : “Break-it-to-Make-it Strategies for Chemical Synthesis Inspired by Complex Natural Products “.
We wish to thank the CNRS for allowing the visit of Prof. Sarpong to our institute.
M. Ibra Sambou from the Ecole nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Montpellier (ENSCM) joins us for a 6 months training period.
Welcome Ibra !
On thursday May 25th, we organized the first PPM thematic day on “Future trends in light-driven processes” at the Domaine du Haut-Carré (Auditorium de l’Agora), with plenary lectures by Dr. M.
