Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Alkene

His primary areas of study are Stereochemistry, Crystallography, Medicinal chemistry, Ligand and Crystal structure. His Stereochemistry research includes themes of Aryl, Pincer movement, Catalysis and Molecule. His Crystallography research includes elements of Inorganic chemistry and Copper.

His Medicinal chemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transmetalation, Palladium, Bromide, Oxidative addition and Cationic polymerization. He has researched Ligand in several fields, including Carboxylate, Dendrimer and Steric effects. His studies in Crystal structure integrate themes in fields like Crystal, Platinum and Spin transition.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure validation in chemical crystallography (11043 citations)
  • Single-crystal structure validation with the program PLATON (9834 citations)
  • PLATON SQUEEZE: a tool for the calculation of the disordered solvent contribution to the calculated structure factors (1500 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Stereochemistry, Crystal structure, Crystallography, Medicinal chemistry and Ligand. His research integrates issues of Pyridine, Platinum, Ring and Polymer chemistry in his study of Stereochemistry. He interconnects X-ray crystallography, Inorganic chemistry and Molecule in the investigation of issues within Crystal structure.

Anthony L. Spek combines subjects such as Nickel, Hydrogen bond and Copper with his study of Crystallography. The various areas that he examines in his Medicinal chemistry study include Organic chemistry, Catalysis, Palladium, Ruthenium and Aryl. His Ligand study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Chelation, Photochemistry and Steric effects.
