BROWN, Robert Stanley –Department of Chemistry, Queen’s University
In an independent research career of over 32 years, R. Stan Brown's research has encompassed diverse areas in organic chemistry including X-ray and UV photoelectron spectroscopy, model enzymes, bio-organic and bio-inorganic chemistry and mechanistic physical organic studies. This work has generated more than 150 research publications in leading journals and seven book chapters. It is characterized by a careful attention to experimental detail and the general interest of the questions to be answered. The findings and interpretation of much of this work concerning organic reaction mechanisms has now been incorporated into textbooks at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
