Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Hydrogen

His primary scientific interests are in Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Group 2 organometallic chemistry, Inorganic chemistry and Cleavage. Organic chemistry overlaps with fields such as Organolithium compounds and Color test in his research. The Medicinal chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Tetrahydrofuran, Group and Halogen.

Henry Gilman works in the field of Inorganic chemistry, focusing on Halide in particular. His Cleavage research integrates issues from Photochemistry, Stereochemistry, Polymer chemistry and Disilane. His research brings together the fields of Trimethylsilyl and Photochemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • A QUALITATIVE COLOR TEST FOR THE GRIGNARD REAGENT (291 citations)
  • The Quantitative Analysis of Alkyllithium Compounds1 (271 citations)
  • The analysis of organolithium compounds (267 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Polymer chemistry and Halide. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Cleavage and Organic chemistry. A large part of his Medicinal chemistry studies is devoted to Metalation.

Inorganic chemistry is frequently linked to Magnesium in his study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Organic chemistry (50.06%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (22.26%)
  • Inorganic chemistry (8.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1967-2011)?

  • Organic chemistry (50.06%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (22.26%)
  • Reagent (4.09%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Reagent, Inorganic chemistry and Magnesium are his primary areas of study. His studies in Chloride, Group 2 organometallic chemistry, Trimethylsilyl, Organosilicon and Furan are all subfields of Organic chemistry research. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cleavage and Group in addition to Medicinal chemistry.

His research on Cleavage often connects related topics like Photochemistry. Much of his study explores Reagent relationship to Yield. His Magnesium study often links to related topics such as Nuclear chemistry.

Between 1967 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • Relative reactivities of organometallic compounds. XIII. Copper and silver (78 citations)
  • Tris(trimethylsilyl)silyllithium (70 citations)
  • Hexasubstituted disilanes from chlorosilanes and lithium in tetrahydrofuran (36 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis
  • Hydrogen

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Trimethylsilyl, Cleavage and Polymer chemistry. Organic chemistry is represented through his Magnesium, Reagent, Copper, Group 2 organometallic chemistry and Chloride research. Henry Gilman has researched Medicinal chemistry in several fields, including Chlorosilane, Steric effects, Ultraviolet and Methylsilane.

His Cleavage study incorporates themes from Photochemistry, Tris, Silicon and Infrared spectroscopy. Henry Gilman combines subjects such as Metalation and Organosilicon with his study of Photochemistry. The concepts of his Polymer chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Tetrahydrofuran and Tin.
