Lucile Cluzeau and Louis Ambroise, both master’s students from UB, joined us as PhD students. 

Welcome Lucile and Louis !

Our paper on the “Photocatalyzed Decarboxylation of Oxamic acids Under Near- Infrared Conditions” has been accepted as a communication in ChemComm.

Congratulations Martin for this nice work !

Our article on “Oxamic acids: Useful Precursors of Carbamoyl Radicals” has been accepted as a Highlight in Chemical Communications.

Congratulations Martin and Gülbin ! 

The ORGA group semester seminar was held at IECB organized by the Pucheault team. On this occasion, Damien presented his work on carbene chemistry. 

On the 23h of March, Martin defended his PhD thesis entitled “”New Processes for the Synthesis of Urethanes and Polyurethanes” in front of a jury composed of Dr. L. Grimault (U. Paris Sciences & Lettres), Dr. C. Gosmini (Ecole Polytechnique), Prof. J. Lalevée (U. Haute Alsace), Prof. H. Cramail (U. Bordeaux) and Prof. D. Taton (U. Bordeaux). Congratulations Martin. We wish you good luck for the future.
After the PhD thesis, Dr. C. Gosmini and Dr. L. Grimault gave two stimulating lectures, respectively on cobalt catalysis and electrochemistry tools.

Our article on the total synthesis of (+)-Eucophylline has been featured on ChemistryViews, Wiley-VCH’s chemistry portal.

Here is the new group picture !

Dr. Mohamed Ould M’hamed has joined us as a post-doctoral researcher.
Welcome Mohamed !

Our paper on the “Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Eucophylline“  (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202200088) has been accepted for publication in Chemistry, A European Journal.

Congratulations to Iman, Nitin and Vincent for their nice piece of work !

Elyse Uwonkunda and Lucile Cluzeau have respectively started their master 1 and Master 2 training period in our laboratory. Welcome to the group.
