he design of environmentally friendly methodologies has been the driving
force of scientists in recent years. In particular the use of biomass-derived
materials, green solvents andalternatives techniques has been investigated. In this
presentation, several green chemistry approaches that target advanced synthesis
and processes will be presented. These approaches include C-C bond formation
such as Suzuki-Miyaura, Heck and Tsuji-Trost cross coupling reactions in water
via conventional catalysis or micellar catalysis using microwave irradiation and
high temperature/pressure; ultrasound irradiation in batch and in continuous flow.
Conception, synthesis and physico-chemical properties will be detailed.
Biography
C Len received his PhD in 1995 from the Université de Picardie
Jules Verne followed by a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Uni-
versity of Hull, England. In 1997, he became Assistant Profes-
sor at UPJV and was promoted to full Professor in 2004 at the
Université de Poitiers, France and in 2010 at the Université de
Technologie Compiègne, France. He has published almost 150
original publications, five chapters and eight patents. Among
recent awards and recognition, he was promoted Honorary Pro-
fessor of the University of Hull, England in 2012-2018. He is a
Fellow of Indian Society of Chemists and Biologists, Fellow of
the Association of Carbohydrate Chemists and Technologist of
India and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. In 2017, he
has been honored with Glycerine Innovation Award sponsored
by the American Cleaning Institute and the National Biodiesel
Board. His current research explores organic chemistry and ca-
talysis applied to biomass.
