Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Stereochemistry

Brian W. Skelton mainly focuses on Stereochemistry, Crystallography, Crystal structure, Medicinal chemistry and Ligand. His research on Stereochemistry also deals with topics like

  • Denticity which connect with Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy,
  • Ruthenium that connect with fields like Substituent. His Crystallography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Inorganic chemistry, Cobalt, Molecule, Metal and Lanthanide.

Brian W. Skelton regularly ties together related areas like X-ray crystallography in his Crystal structure studies. His Medicinal chemistry study incorporates themes from Palladium, Adduct, Organic chemistry, Amine gas treating and Carbene. He combines subjects such as Octahedron, Pyridine, Cluster chemistry, Hydrogen bond and Trifluoromethanesulfonate with his study of Ligand.

His most cited work include:

  • Zerovalent palladium and nickel complexes of heterocyclic carbenes: Oxidative addition of organic halides, carbon-carbon coupling processes, and the Heck reaction (307 citations)
  • Isolation, crystal structure and synthesis of arsenobetaine, the arsenical constituent of the western rock lobster panulirus longipes cygnus George (298 citations)
  • Palladium(II) complexes containing mono-, bi- and tridentate carbene ligands. Synthesis, characterisation and application as catalysts in CC coupling reactions (253 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Crystallography, Stereochemistry, Crystal structure, Medicinal chemistry and Ligand. His studies in Crystallography integrate themes in fields like Inorganic chemistry, Molecule, Metal and Copper. Brian W. Skelton studied Stereochemistry and Adduct that intersect with Lewis acids and bases.

His Crystal structure research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of X-ray crystallography and Physical chemistry. His research integrates issues of Organometallic chemistry, Palladium, Catalysis, Carbene and Organic chemistry in his study of Medicinal chemistry. His research in Ligand intersects with topics in Cluster, Cluster chemistry and Octahedron.
