Adrien Tintar (PhD, 2022-2025)
I graduated from the University Paris Cité where I obtained the Master’s Program “Frontiers in Chemistry” and now, I am currently a PhD student under the supervision of the Dr. Guillaume Lefèvre, also working with the M2i development company, a French company specialized in the synthesis and formulation of insect pheromones as eco-friendly pesticides alternatives. My thesis project aims to develop new and more eco-friendly synthetic pathways of insect pheromones that are applicable to the industrial scale.
Faycel Djebbar (PhD, 2022-2025)
I completed my master’s degree in molecular chemistry at the Sorbonne University, where I got my first experience in organometallic chemistry, working on gold complexes. I then joined the Guillaume Lefèvre group in 2022 to pursue my doctoral studies. My work is focused on the development of new iron complexes and their applications in Catalysis, mainly in coupling reactions and the activation of C-H and C-C bonds.
Fedor Zhurkin (Post-doc associate)
Fedor has obtained his M.Sc. degree from Lomonosov Moscow State University (2012) and his Ph.D. from EPF Lausanne (2017) where he studied organometallic complexes of low-valent iron and their applications in organic synthesis and small-molecule activation under the direction of Prof. Xile HU. He joined the group after a stage with Prof. Olivia Reinaud at University of Paris where he worked on biomimetic base-metal complexes based on calix[6]arenes.
