A new doctor at LCMCE: after 3 years in the lab under the direction of Thibault Cantat and Lucile Anthore-Dalion, Félix Mandelaire successfully defended his PhD thesis on December 11th, entitled “Cleavage of σ C–O bonds of formates assisted by Lewis acids and applications in decarboxylative coupling“. Congratulations Dr. Félix for your hard work! And many thanks to the jury members, Marie-Pierre Heck, Amandine Guérinot, Yann Sarazin, and Sami Lakhdar, for the insightful discussions.
