Thieme-IUPAC Prize in Synthetic Organic Chemistry for 2004
Announced

Georg Thieme Verlag, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry and the Editors of Synthesis, Synlett and Houben-Weyl are pleased to announce the recipient of the

Thieme-IUPAC Prize in Synthetic Organic Chemistry 2004

John F. Hartwig


John F. Hartwig is the recipient of the 2004 Thieme-IUPAC Prize in recognition of his outstanding achievements in the field of synthetic organic chemistry. His research focuses on the discovery, development, and understanding of new reactions catalyzed by transition metals and has had a direct and relevant impact on synthetic chemists worldwide. The scope of his research is extensive, covering areas such as amination of aryl halides, a-arylation of carbonyl compounds, alkane functionalization, hydroamination of olefins, and enantioselective allylic amination and etherification. He will be presented the prize at ICOS-15 in Nagoya, Japan, on 3 August, 2004.

Further details regarding the prizewinner can be found at <http://www.yale.edu/hartwig/>

The Thieme-IUPAC Prize is awarded every two years on the occasion of IUPAC’s International Conference on Organic Synthesis (ICOS) to a scientist under 40 years of age, whose research has had a major impact on the field of synthetic organic chemistry. The Prize is sponsored jointly by Georg Thieme Verlag, IUPAC, and the editors of Synthesis, Synlett, Science of Synthesis, and Houben-Weyl.
