The group in 2024 !!

On the 6th of June, Damien Magis defended his PhD thesis entitled “Synthèse et réactivité de nouveaux carbènes amino(aryl) acycliques stables. Applications et synthèse de polymères organiques” in front of a jury composed of Dr. J. Broggi (Aix-Marseille U.), Dr. D. Martin (U. Grenoble Alpes), Dr. V. Cesar (U. P. Sabatier, Toulouse), Dr. K. Miqueu (U. Pau et des Pays de l’Adour) and Prof. D. Taton (U. Bordeaux).

Congratulations Damien !! We wish you good luck for the future.

Our review article in collaboration with Prof. I. Ryu (National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Hsinchu (Taiwan) and Dr. S. Sumino, Osaka Prefecture (Japan), entitled “1,2-Bis(phenylsulfonyl)ethylene (BPSE). A Potent Radical C2 Synthon Available in the Radical and Electron-Transfer-Based Organic Synthesis“ has been accepted for publication in Synthesis. 

Our article entitled “Expedient Synthesis of Thermally Stable Acyclic Amino(haloaryl)carbenes. Experimental and Theoretical Evidence of “Push-Pull” Stabilized Carbenes” has been accepted for publication in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 

This work was carried out under the frame of the ANR “Carbenopol” in collaboration with K. Miqueu, J.-M. Sotiropoulos (IPREM, UPPA), D. Taton and J. Vignolle (LCPO, UB)

Congratulations to Damien and Jorge for their remarkable work. 

Our article entitled “Visible light Mediated Iron-Catalyzed Addition of Oxamic Acids to Imines“ has been accepted for publication in RSC Advances 

Our paper entitled “Synthesis of Polyurethanes Through the Oxidative Decarboxylation of Oxamic Acids: a New Gateway Toward Self-blown Foams” was posted as a prepint in ChemRixv.

This work funded by ANR concludes a long-term collaboration with the team of Prof. H. Cramail from LCPO (UB) on the preparation of polyurethane foams. 

Thank you to Quentin, Martin and Govind for their efforts !

Our article entitled “Copper-mediated Decarboxylative Amidination: Synthesis of O-methyl-N-alkylnitroisoureas” has been accepted for publication in Advanced Synthesis & catalysis.

Congratulations to Jonathan and Dickson for their nice work !

Dr. Rania Akacha, a former PhD student at the University of Lyon-1 (Laboratoire d’Ingénierie des Matériaux Polymères (UMR 5223)) is joining us as a post-doctoral fellow on a collaborative project with the team of Prof H. Cramail at the LCPO.

After 11 years in our team Jonathan has left the University of Bordeaux to join the University of Lyon.
We were delighted and lucky to have you with us.
Thank you for everything and good luck in your new life in the South-East….

Charlotte, Thibault and Clement join us for their master 1 and 2 training.

Welcome to all !!!
