"for their pioneering work, performed independently, on the chemistry of the organometallic, so called sandwich compounds" [73] Geoffrey Wilkinson (1921–1996) British 1974 Paul J. Flory (1910–1985) American "for his fundamental work, both theoretical and experimental, in the physical chemistry of macromolecules" [74] 1975 John Warcup Cornforth
Boyle, in this book, became the first to argue that experiment should form the basis of all theory, a common practice in chemistry today. He also expounded on a rudimentary atomic theory and the existence of chemical elements beyond the classic earth, fire, air, and water. [5]
Humphry Davy (1778–1829), British chemist, discovered several alkaline earth metals; Raymond Davis, Jr. (1914–2006), American physical chemist; Serena DeBeer (born 1973, American chemist and director of the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion; Peter Debye (1884–1966), Dutch chemist, winner of the 1936 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
Mario José Molina-Pasquel Henríquez [a] (19 March 1943 – 7 October 2020) [7] was a Mexican physical chemist. He played a pivotal role in the discovery of the Antarctic ozone hole, and was a co-recipient of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his role in discovering the threat to the Earth's ozone layer from chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases.
American protein chemist at Harvard, very influential in protein research, and author (with Edwin Cohn) of Proteins, Amino Acids and Peptides. Member Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. Konstantin Efetov (b. 1958). Ukrainian biochemist at Crimea State Medical University, known for work in molecular immunology, evolutionary biology, and biosystematics.
Sir William Ramsay KCB FRS FRSE (/ ˈ r æ m z i /; 2 October 1852 – 23 July 1916) was a Scottish chemist who discovered the noble gases and received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1904 "in recognition of his services in the discovery of the inert gaseous elements in air" along with his collaborator, John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh, who received the Nobel Prize in Physics that same ...
Tour became a born-again Christian in his first year at Syracuse [35] and identifies as a Messianic Jew. [57] Tour signed the Scientific Dissent from Darwinism, [1] a statement issued by the Discovery Institute disputing the scientific consensus on evolution, but, in spite of the Discovery Institute's promotion of the pseudoscience of intelligent design, Tour does not consider himself to be an ...
Robert Burns Woodward ForMemRS HonFRSE (April 10, 1917 – July 8, 1979) was an American organic chemist.He is considered by many to be the preeminent synthetic organic chemist of the twentieth century, [3] having made many key contributions to the subject, especially in the synthesis of complex natural products and the determination of their molecular structure.
