Stuart Warren
Stuart Warren is a British organic chemist and author of chemistry textbooks aimed at university students.[1]
Academic career
Warren was educated at Cheadle Hulme School near Manchester and read the Natural Sciences Tripos at Trinity College, Cambridge. He stayed at Cambridge to complete a PhD with Malcolm Clark, before moving to Harvard to do post-doctoral research with F. H. Westheimer. Dr Warren returned to Trinity as a research fellow and subsequently took up a post as a teaching fellow at Churchill College in 1971.[2] He remained a lecturer and researcher in the Department of Chemistry at Cambridge until his retirement in 2006.[3]
The Warren group
Warren's research group is renowned for having produced some of the most successful organic chemistry academics in the UK, including:
- Professor Varinder Aggarwal, Professor Paul Wyatt (University of Bristol)
- Professor Jonathan Clayden (University of Manchester)
- Professor Peter O'Brien (University of York)
- Professor Adam Nelson (University of Leeds)
- Professor Kelly Chibale (University of Cape Town)
- Professor Iain Coldham (University of Sheffield)
- Professor Nikolai Kuhnert (Jacobs University Bremen)
- Dr. David Fox (University of Warwick)
- Dr. Lorenzo Caggiano (University of Bath)
- Dr. Richard Hartley (University of Glasgow)
- Dr. Julian Knight (Newcastle University)
- Dr. Jason Eames (University of Hull)
- Dr. Nick Greeves (University of Liverpool)
- Dr. Daniel Sejer Pedersen (University of Copenhagen)
- Dr. Stephen Thomas (University of Edinburgh)
Textbook authorship
Warren is well known for his university-level textbooks Chemistry of the Carbonyl Group (1974),[4] Designing Organic Syntheses: The Synthon Approach (1978),[5] Organic Synthesis: The Disconnection Approach (first edition 1982,[6] second edition 2008[7]), and its graduate-level sequel, Organic Synthesis: Strategy and Control (2007).[8] He is perhaps best known as one of the authors of the best-selling undergraduate text Organic Chemistry (first edition 2000,[9] second edition 2012[10]), which he wrote with his former students Jonathan Clayden and Nick Greeves, and fellow Cambridge lecturer Peter Wothers.
