Tetrahedron Prizes

Prof B.G. Davis and Prf Zhang-Jie Shi win the Tetrahedron Young Investigator Award 2012

Prof B.G. Davis University of Oxford, UK Winner of the Tetrahedron Young Investigator Awards for Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry

Prof. Zhang-Jie Shi Peking University, China Winner of the Tetrahedron Young Investigator Awards for Organic Synthesis

Prof B.G. Davis and Prof Zhang-Jie Shi will give a plenary lecture at the 13^th Tetrahedron Symposium, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, where they will be formally presented with their award. Each recipient also receives a certificate and an award of US $1,000. Additionally, a Symposium-in-Print in one of the journals will be published in each of their honour. Similar to the Tetrahedron Prize for Creativity in Organic Chemistry, which these awards complement, the Tetrahedron Young Investigator Awards are also made on an annual basis.

Tetrahedron Prize 2011 awarded to Prof Manfred T. Reetz

The Executive Board of Editors and Elsevier, the Publisher of Tetrahedron Publications, are delighted to announce that the Tetrahedron Prize for Creativity in Organic Chemistry for 2011 has been awarded to Professor Dr. Manfred T. Reetz, Max-Planck-Institut fur Kohlenforschung, Honorary Professor at Ruhr-Universitat Bochum
The Tetrahedron Prize will presented to Professor Reetz at the Fall 2012 ACS National Meeting in Philadelphia, USA. The date for the Prize Symposium and presentation of the Award is yet to be decided.

Professor Reetz is distinguished for his many outstanding contributions to synthetic organic chemistry, especially for his work on  enantioselective catalysis to control stereoselectivity, often using transition-metal catalysts. Most recently he has been prominent in the discovery and development of catalysts for asymmetric reactions using laboratory-directed evolution of stereoselective enzymes.
