Scientific Production
Summary
Florence Mongin studied Chemistry at the Université de Rouen where she obtained her PhD in 1994 under the supervision of Prof. Guy Quéguiner. After a two-year postdoctoral position at the Institute of Organic Chemistry of Lausanne with Prof. Manfred Schlosser, she returned to the University of Rouen as an Assistant Professor in 1997 (habilitation in 2003). She took up her present position in 2005 as Professor at the University of Rennes, and has been appointed Junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France from 2009 to 2014.
She is skilled in the functionalization of aromatic compounds including heterocycles, and in particular by using lithium bases or bimetallic complexes and combinations. Her present scientific interests also include the implementation of aromatic heterocycles to reach molecules of biological interest and the functionalization of ferrocenes.
