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

Welcome to all !!!

Our work recently published in ACS Catalysis on “O-Methyl-N-nitroisourea as a NCO Surrogate in Cu-Catalyzed Alkane C–H Amidination. A Masked Isocyanate Strategy“ was highlighted by the CNRS. 

In the frame of an Arkivoc special issue in the honour of Prof. Samir Zard, we recently contributed with a manuscript entitled “Copper-catalyzed silylation of activated alkenes by photoinduced ligand-to-metal charge transfer”. 

Congratulations to Sam for his remarkable achievements in both radical and organic chemistry

Well done Shuai for this work !

Our article entitled “O-Methyl-N-Nitroisourea as a NCO Surrogate in Cu-Catalyzed Alkane C-H Amidination. A Masked Isocyanate Strategy” has been accepted for publication in ACS Catalysis

Congratulations to Jonathan for this nice and hard work !

M. Younes Massad joins us as a PhD student funded by the French General Consulate of France in Jerusalem (“Bourse France Excellence”).  

Welcome Younes !!!

Jonathan presented his work on “C-H amidination of alkanes and polyethylenes” at the 28th French-Japanese Symposium on Medicinal & Fine Chemistry which was held at the University of Nice 1st to 4th of October 2023. 

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.
