Jonathan Paul ClaydenCChemFRSC(born 6 February 1968) is a Professor oforganic chemistryat theUniversity of Bristol.
Education[edit]
In 1992 he obtained hisPhD[1]at theUniversity of Cambridgeworking withDr Stuart Warrenonasymmetric synthesisusingphosphine oxidechemistry. He then carried out a postdoc withProf Marc Juliaand in 1994 became a lecturer inorganic chemistryat theUniversity of Manchesterwhere he became a reader in 2000 and a Professor of Organic Chemistry in 2001. In 2015 he moved to a chair in chemistry at theUniversity of Bristol.
Research[edit]
His research interests encompass various areas of synthesis and stereochemistry, particularly where conformation has a role to play: asymmetric synthesis, atropisomerism,[2]organolithium chemistry, remote stereochemical effects[3]and dynamic foldamer chemistry.[4]He is one of the authors of the organic chemistry textbook -Organic Chemistryby Clayden, Greeves, Warren and Wothers.[5]He also wroteOrganolithiums: Selectivity for Synthesis,[6]which concerns the use oforganolithium compoundsin organic synthetic reactions.
From 2005 to 2011 he was editor-in-chief of the Open AccessBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry.
