Le site du GECOM-CONCOORD 2024 est désormais ouvert! Les inscriptions et dépôts ne seront possibles qu'à partir du 8 janvier 2024, mais vous pouvez d'ores et déjà y jeter un coup d’œil. On vous attend nombreux à Ax-les-Thermes! gecom2024.sciencesconf.org

On Friday, young researchers from Small Molecules Activation and Alzheimer, Amyloids and Bioinorganic Chemistry have welcomed pupils from local schools Laboratoire de chimie de coordination to celebrate Science Festival. They had the opportunity to experiment by themselves and to discover the world of chemistry!

On Friday, we were lucky enough to welcome The University of Edinburgh Prof. Jason Love @Doc_JLo from Chemistry Edinburgh for the student-organized Young Investigators Seminar Laboratoire de chimie de coordination. Great to learn more about its group ways to sustainably extract metals from e-waste!

Thrilled to have been involved in this project, showing how simple phosphines can catalyse hydrodefluorination reactions. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… Congratulations in particular to Sara for her careful and skilled experimentation. Chemistry at York ITN Project CCIMC Antoine Simonneau

Very happy and proud to see the work of Agustín Morales published in Chemical Science. Great collaborative work within the ITN Project CCIMC framework, involving our very own S. Bontemps (Small Molecules Activation), Olivier Baslé (Laboratoire de chimie de coordination) and Prof. Agustí Lledós (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona). pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

The group is looking for highly talented post-doc willing to work on different aspects of the Small Molecules Activation, within the framework of the Junior Fellowship Program of the Université de Toulouse ! univ-toulouse.fr/tiris-transiti… Do not hesitate to contact us!

Congratulations to Sara for this great piece of work!

Interested in stabilisation of CO2 radical anion-like species, take a look at our recent Chemical Science paper. Congrats Agustín Morales, thanks Agustí Lledós Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona & Sebastien Bontemps Small Molecules Activation for the nice collaboration within ITN Project CCIMC. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

MEET THE SPEAKERS GECOM-CONCOORD 2024! Dr. Jesus Campos (Jesus Campos Group from IIQ, Sevilla) will give us a plenary lecture in may, in the Pyrenean mountains! Come to learn more about mixed transition/main group metal bimetallics, frustration and cooperation!

Nicolas Queyriaux Small Molecules Activation gives a very good talk ‘Stabilizing N2O-based radicals : investigation of electronic structures’ during scientific day in honor of Bernard Meunier Laboratoire de chimie de coordination #50ansLCC ➡️ lcc-toulouse.fr/evenements-lab…

Borohydride Compounds Catalyze the Selective 4e– Reduction of CO2 with 9-BBN (J Org Chem/Org Lett): pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… (Small Molecules Activation).

Together with Nicolas Kaeffer MPI-CEC, we are organizing the 1st German-French Symposium on Molecular Electrocatalysis. Great speakers and free of charge, it's definitely one event to add to your calendar if you're in Mülheim on 5th December. You can register now!

New paper out! Check out Leon's article in collaboration with DCM Grenoble published in JACS Au. The use of a bis(borane) for oxygen activation promoted by group 13 Lewis acids induces a 4-electron O2 reductive cleavage, thanks to chelation. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

The short review written by Antoine Simonneau and Léon on the activation of small molecules by polyfunctional Lewis acids is now out: kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2… Laboratoire de chimie de coordination
