Extractions: UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER October 11, 2001 K. Barry Sharpless, a San Diego chemist whose research led to new methods for making drugs and other compounds shared the Nobel Prize in chemistry yesterday. Sharpless, a scientist at The Scripps Research Institute, shared the prestigious award with William S. Knowles of St. Louis and Ryoji Noyori of Japan's Nagoya University. The three were honored for discovering new types of chemical reactions that could be used to duplicate the highly specific way that nature makes molecules. Their research led to manufacturing techniques that didn't exist before the 1970s, enabling scientists to produce new types of medicine such as L-dopa, a now-standard treatment for Parkinson's disease. Their work, which dates to the 1960s, also allowed other industries to create purer, more-effective compounds from perfumes and pheromone-based pesticides to flavorings and sweeteners.

Extractions: see previous page K. Berry Sharpless (born ) won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in for his work on chirally catalysed oxidation reactions ( Sharpless epoxidation Sharpless bishydroxylation ). This prize was shared with William S. Knowles and Ryoji Noyori for their study of chirally catalyzed hydrogenations. Sharpless was born in Philadelphia . He began his studies in Dartmouth College and earned his PhD from Stanford University in . He continued post-doctoral work at Stanford University and Harvard University Sharpless became professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Stanford University , and the Scripps Research Institute, where currently holds the W. M. Keck professorship in chemistry.

Extractions: Titanium-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation paved the way to a Nobel Prize in Chemistry MAUREEN ROUHI T he paper titled "The First Practical Method for Asymmetric Epoxidation," which reports the discovery of titanium-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation [ J. Am. Chem. Soc. ] evokes vivid memories for K. Barry Sharpless tert CHEERS Katsuki (left) and Sharpless, in 1980, celebrate the discovery of titanium-catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation. COURTESY OF THE SHARPLESS LAB The paper is one of the 125 most cited papers in the history of the Journal of the American Chemical Society but it might never have been published there. Sharpless, a chemistry professor at Scripps Research Institute and winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2001 for his work on asymmetric oxidations, says one reviewer rejected the paper on the grounds that it was merely an incremental improvement over previous work. The paper was published only after Barry M. Trost

Dr Sir Gordon Wu presented the Certificate of Appointment to Prof. Ryoji Noyori (left) Interviewing Dr William Knowles (left) by Prof. Albert Chan Sun-chi. PolyU conferred the title of Distinguished Honorary Professorship, the highest academic honour of the University, to the winners of the 2001 Nobel Prize in Chemistry at a special ceremony held on campus on 29 April. The association with the three top scholars will be a strong boost to the further development of the University's Area of Excellence "The Hong Kong Institute of Molecular Technology for Drug Discovery and Synthesis". The esteemed academic honour was conferred by Council Chairman Dr Sir Gordon Wu upon the three Nobel Laureates. They are Prof. Ryoji Noyori, Director of the Research Centre for Materials Science of Nagoya University in Japan; Prof. K. Barry Sharpless, W.M. Keck Professor of Chemistry at the Scripps Research Institute in the US; and Dr William Knowles, previously with Monsanto Company in the US.

Extractions: 2003 Eugene J. Houdry Award of the North American Catalysis Society which, in the words of its president Dr. John N. Armor, "it is a very high honor, often considered the most important award in heterogeneous industrial catalysis in the USA and probably in the world". More information about the nature and previous recipients of this award can be found at the address: http://www.nacatsoc.org I am writing to let you know that Prof. Rice and I have developed an interesting method of doing solid/fluid kinetics of the sort that may be of benefit to people doing fluid/solid reactions, desorption studies or TPD work in general. Our initial work in this area was introduced at the Adsorption Conference in Lyon in 2000 and the following year in our book "Experimental Methods in Kinetic Studies" . We have further developed this aspect of temperature scanning applications and are now able to calculate from a single TPD-like adsorption/desorption run: the "effective" void volume of the reactor

Extractions: "pour ses travaux sur les réactions d'oxydation catalysées par chiralité". Un grand nombre de molécules existent sous deux formes inverses optiques comme le sont nos mains. Elles sont dites chirales. Les chercheurs ont constaté que, dans la nature, l'une des deux formes est souvent plus fréquente que l'autre. Dans nos cellules, l'une des formes inverses optiques "va comme un gant" à l'opposé de l'autre qui peut même s'avérer nocive. Les produits pharmaceutiques sont souvent composés de molécules chirales et la différenciation des deux formes peut se révéler vitale ce que prouva la catastrophe provoquée par le Neurosedyn dans les années 60. Il est donc important de pouvoir produire les deux formes chirales séparément.
