Pascual Oña Burgos, has became Doctor in Organic Chemistry. His PhD titled "Phosphinamide as New Director for Alpha and Ortho Metalation Group. New Applications in Organic Synthesis" was examined by Prof. A. M. Echavarren (ICIQ, Tarragona), Prof. R. Riguera (Univ. Santiago Compostela), Prof. J. Pérez (Univ. Valencia), Prof. J. Flórez (Univ. Oviedo) and Prof. I. Rodríguez (Univ. Almería). The mark obtained was the highest "Sobresaliente cum Laude por Unanimidad".
