Laurent Plasseraud is CNRS researcher as Chargé de Recherche at the University of Burgundy (DijonFrance).
His main research results concern original structures of transition metal and main group metal complexes with relevance to sustainability, homogenous catalysis, supramolecular chemistry, and molecular materials fields.
Since he joined the CNRS (2001-present), he devoted his research activities on sustainable chemistry projects using CO2 as a C1 synthon, and more recently he focuses on the transformation of biobased molecules into chemicals and materials with higher added values.

Current topics of research :

• Carbon dioxide, a renewable source of carbon: Application for the green synthesis of dialkyl carbonates,
• Chemical transformation of biomass-derived molecules, ▪ Insertion Mechanisms of carbon dioxide into the metal-alkoxide bonds,
• Insertion Mechanisms of carbon dioxide into the metal-alkoxide bonds
• Main group metal coordination chemistry,
• Processes of carbonate biomineralization in metazoans (interdisciplinary collaboration with the Dr. Frédéric Marin, Biogéosciences laboratory, Dijon - UMR CNRS 6282).
