Joan Oró (1923–2004), Catalan biochemist, one of his most important contributions was the prebiotic synthesis of the nucleobase adenine from hydrogen cyanide; Hans Christian Ørsted (1777–1851), first to isolate aluminium; Wilhelm Ostwald (1853–1932), 1909 Nobel Prize in Chemistry; Larry E. Overman (born 1943), American organic chemist
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 ]
"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
John Dombrowski Roberts (June 8, 1918 – October 29, 2016) was an American chemist. He made contributions to the integration of physical chemistry, spectroscopy, and organic chemistry for the understanding of chemical reaction rates. Another characteristic of Roberts' work was the early use of NMR, focusing on the concept of spin coupling. [1]
Sir John Meurig Thomas, 2011 Elizabeth Blackburn with AIC Gold Medal, 2012. This list of chemistry awards is an index to articles about notable awards for chemistry.It includes awards by the Royal Society of Chemistry, the American Chemical Society, the Society of Chemical Industry and awards by other organizations.
He ranked 5th on Thomson ISI's list of the 1000 most cited chemists from 1981 to 1997, [37] and 38th on the list from 2000 to 2010. [38] According to the Hirsch index, a ranking which combines number of articles published and citations of those articles by others, he was the most influential living chemist in 2011. [4]
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.
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.
