Organometallics Announces Winners of the Senior and Young Investigator Fellowships
The ACS Division of Inorganic Chemistry and Organometallics are proud to announce the winners of the inaugural Organometallics Senior and Young Investigator Fellowships for outstanding research in the field of organometallic chemistry.
The Fellows will speak at a symposium in their honor at the fall ACS National Meeting, August 10-14, 2014 in San Francisco, California.
Senior Investigator Fellow:
Richard R. Schrock, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was selected as Organometallics Senior Investigator Fellow for his impactful research and outstanding record of accomplishments. Dr. Schrock’s research interests include the development of high oxidation state early metal complexes for use in olefin metathesis reactions, as well as the catalytic reduction of dinitrogen by molybdenum complexes under ambient conditions. His work has been recognized with numerous awards, including the ACS Award in Organometallic Chemistry, the ACS Award in Inorganic Chemistry, the ACS Cope Scholar Award, the F. Albert Cotton Award in Synthetic Inorganic Chemistry and the 2005 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
