In 1931 he began working at the College de France, where he stayed until his death in 1945. is associated with the development of several important organic chemical reactions. One is a novel terpyridine synthesis, the Chichibabin pyridine synthesis. The other reactions are the Bodroux-Chichibabin aldehyde synthesis and the Chichibabin reaction. He was also the author of "Fundamentals Of Organic Chemistry", which was published in two volumes and became one of the principal university-level chemistry textbooks in the Soviet Union. The book is dedicated to his daughter, Natacha, who was killed by an explosion in a chemical production factory. He won the Lenin Prize in 1926. He and his wife, Vera Vladmirovna Tchitchibabine, had one child, a daughter who became a chemist.
