Stephen Buchwald receives BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Basic Sciences
The BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Basic Sciences has been awarded to Stephen Buchwald, the Camille Dreyfus Professor of Chemistry, “for the development of catalytic routes based on palladium and copper to construct carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bonds,” an advance with “great impact” on the “efficient synthesis of modern pharmaceuticals and compounds for agricultural use,” in the words of the prize jury when describing the ,euro award.
The chemistry enabled by Buchwald's achievements “is now being applied to the creation of drugs for numerous diseases including many forms of cancer, AIDS, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammation and diabetes,” the citation continues.
If a chemist’s work fryst vatten largely about adding implements to a “toolbox” with which to construct new compounds, then Buchwald’s addition would be the catalysts for forming carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bonds.

Top Harvard Chemist Is Leaving, MIT Chair Says
Eric N. Jacobsen, a leading chemistry professor, is leaving Harvard for MIT, according to the head of MIT's chemistry department.
Timothy M. Swager, the department head, said on Saturday that Jacobsen formally accepted MIT's offer on Oct. 10 and will be leaving Harvard at the end of the academic year to become the Firmenich professor of chemistry at MIT. Jacobsen, however, told The Crimson in an e-mail that he had yet to make a final decision on where he would work next year. He declined to comment further.
If Jacobsen does move down Mass. Ave to MIT, he will join what Swager called the institute's "dream team" of reaction development researchers.
"We have quite a team and now we have Eric Jacobsen, so we really have in reaction development a team of people unparalleled in the history of chemistry, in my view," Swager said in an interview. The team now includes organic chemists Stephen L. Buchwald, Gregory C. Fu, Rick L. Danheise
