R. Bruce King
R. Bruce King is emeritus professor at the University of Georgia.[1] He has contributed to many areas of organometallic chemistry, including synthesis, spectroscopy, and theory. He is the author and editor of several monographs and book series.[2]
Training and research interests
[edit]He received his Ph.D. in 1961 under the direction of F. Gordon A. Stone at Harvard for research on organocobalt and organoiron compounds.[4] He subsequently conducted studies on synthetic organometallic chemistry at DuPont and then at the Mellon Institute. His endeavors led to the first examples of diazonium complexes.[5] His contributions also include organophosphorus ligands.
Recognition
[edit]Among his accolades, King was recognized by the American Chemical Society Awards in Pure Chemistry (1971) and in Inorganic Chemistry (1991).
