After continuing his training in various Paris hospitals, he became a taxidermist at the Collège de France and worked in the laboratory of Marcellin Berthelot , where he remained until 1902. He graduated there in pharmacology and received his doctorate ( Amines et amides dérivés des aldéhydes , Gauthier-Villars 1898). In 1902 he became head pharmacologist at Paris hospitals and was at the Bretonneau hospital, at the Broca hospital for fifteen years and at the Hôpital de la Pitié until 1927. At the same time he was from 1904 at the Ecole superieure de pharmacie de Paris, from 1913 as a professor of mineralogy and hydrology. 1930 to 1941 he was a professor of organic chemistry at the College de France.
In 1930 he became a member of the Académie des sciences and he was a member of the Academie nationale de Medicine (1928). In 1962 he received the CNRS gold medal . From 1923 he was an officer and from 1950 commander of the Legion of Honor and commander of the Palmes académiques . From 1929 to 1931 he was President of the French Chemical Society (SCF) and from 1945 its Honorary President.
From 1927 he was also associated with the Poulenc company and later headed pharmaceutical research at Rhône-Poulenc . He was also head of research at Specia and from 1944 to 1960 its president, after which he was honorary president.
Among other things, he dealt with the chemistry of metal complexes (platinum, iridium, rhodium), sulfur compounds and terpenes . The Delépine reaction is named after him.
Delépine published several papers on the history of chemistry and was honorary president of the Société d'Histoire de la Pharmacie.
