The constant progress of chemistry in numerous domains like organic synthesis, quantum chemistry or physical chemistry makes it possible to imagine, to predict properties and to carry out more and more complex molecular edifices. The study of these systems necessitates the implementation of diverse, varied state-of-the-art techniques like modelling, synthesis or formulation. The association of these multiple competences existing in several research teams must make it possible to process complex problems of the living or to make new, sure applications emerge. It is in this spirit that the teams making up the “Structure and Reactivity of Complex Molecular Systems” Mixed Research unit decided to join their competences and to coordinate their research programs within a single pluridisciplinary laboratory.

Subjects of Research and Applications

The laboratory research is turned towards the prediction and explanation of properties of new molecules, biomolecules, supramolecular sets or colloidal systems designed and prepared in the Unit.
Its subjects are :
- Control of the chemical reactivity, addresses at the same time from a theoretical point of view with the help of quantum chemistry and modelling methods, and experimentally by the search for new synthesis methods and new reactants ;
- Complexation phenomena by developing a synthesis activity of selective complexants of ons and molecules, by determining the physical chemistry constants of phenomena and by developing ion-biomolecule interaction models ;
- The domain of organized molecular systems ;
- Molecular recognition, where the research is centred on design with the help of molecular modelling, and the synthesis of enzyme inhibitors, synthetic ligands of natural receptors or model molecules of receptors of bioactive ligands.


These structures are usable in very varied application going from industrial chemistry to new therapies.
