EDUCATION

Graduated with Bachelor Degree from Mulhouse University

Graduated with Master Degree from Louis Pasteur University

1974 Graduated with Ph.D from Louis Pasteur University

RESEARCH AREAS:

Fundamental and applied molecular chemistry, creation of new chemical bonds (metal-metal), of new complex molecules, elaboration of concepts rationalizing structure-reactivity relationships, applications in homogeneous catalysis (ethylene oligomerization, cooligomerization olefins/CO and ethylene/polar olefins, transfer hydrogenation of ketones, alkane activation, deshydrogenative coupling of stannanes), nanomaterials from molecular precursors, applications in heterogeneous catalysis (carbonylation of organic nitro derivatives to isocyanates)

* Synthesis et complexation of polytopic functional ligands

* New organic molecules with delocalized system (quinonoids)

* Chemistry of functional enolates and their metal complexes (synthesis, characterization, reactivity, catalysis) * Synthesis and reactivity of bimetallic silyl complexes (new molecular interactions and catalysis) * Molecular clusters (concepts, synthesis, structures, reactivity, catalysis)
