Emanuel Vogel
Emanuel Vogel (born December 2, 1927 in Ettlingen , † March 31, 2011 in Karlsruhe ) was a German chemist .
Life
Emanuel Vogel studied chemistry in Karlsruhe and received his doctorate in 1952 under Rudolf Criegee . Vogel was a postdoctoral fellow with Arthur C. Cope at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ) in Cambridge, USA, in 1955 , and completed his habilitation in 1957 at the Technical University of Karlsruhe . Vogel then worked there as a private lecturer until 1961 . From 1961 until his retirement he held the chair for organic chemistry at the University of Cologne as the successor to Nobel Prize winner Kurt Alder for more than 35 years . The subject of his research and numerous publications was the chemistry of aromatic compounds ( annulenes and porphyrin analogues).
In 1983 Emanuel Vogel was elected a member of the Leopoldina .
Honourings and prices
He has been honored with numerous scientific awards for his work, including honorary doctorates from prestigious universities, memberships in academies and outstanding science prizes:
- 1975 Emil Fischer Medal from the GDCh
- 1994 Gay Lussac Humboldt Prize
- 2000 first recipient of the Robert Burns Woodward Career Award in Porphyrin Chemistry for his fundamental research on the chemistry of porphyrins
Emanuel Vogel lecture
The University of Cologne has been commemorating him every year since 2014 with an Emanuel Vogel lecture donated by his student Engelbert Zass, ETH Zurich . This honors chemists from Vogel's research area with a connection to the University of Cologne; the winners receive a graphic commissioned by the pharmacist and artist Hermann J. Roth .
