Synthetic Chemistry

With specific training (organic chemistry, biochemistry and bioorganic chemistry) and transversal and additional skills (analytical chemistry, industrial chemistry, etc.), at the end of the training , the graduate will be able to:

• to understand the theoretical sequence of "multi-step" syntheses of biologically active molecules;
• understand the principles of green chemistry;
• to understand the biological context (if applicable) of the synthesis of a target molecule;
• to understand market constraints, ecological and economic constraints.

The LPCOB is organized into 9 Teaching Units spread over 2 Semesters. UE1 and 6 provide solid foundations in organic chemistry. The lessons provided are updated every year by the teachers according to existing developments in academic research. Indeed, these teachings are oriented towards modern organic chemistry and take into account recent discoveries. UE7 represents the application of the knowledge base provided in UE1 then in UE6. The lessons are mainly carried out by industrial participants, which allows apprentices to see concrete applications in R&D. The UE2 allows the obtaining of basics in biochemistry and therefore the apprentices to have a step back on the purpose of the syntheses carried out. They will also be able to understand and dialogue with different partners within companies (biochemists, pharmacologists, modellers, etc.). The UE8 is aEUopenness to an even more specialized chemistry towards industry and towards the classic analysis methods that all organicians are required to master in order to control the presence and purity of their synthesized products. These lessons are presented as analytical tools. They are in no way oriented towards the development of analytical methods. Finally, the UE3 is also a teaching unit open to the industrial world since it brings together

• lessons on how companies operate and the law that applies to them;
• teaching in English essential for understanding scientific publications and/or internal company protocols;
• general education where oral and written communication tools are taught;
• training in health and safety and training as First Aid at Work.

The UE4 represents a personal work of bibliographic research. The writing of the report and the oral presentation of the subject are based on lessons in general education (training in oral presentations and tools for writing reports), English (analysis of scientific articles) and questioning of databases. data. The UE5 and 9 are associated with the work carried out by the apprentice during the various periods of work-study within the company.
