Sabine Laschat (born August 20, 1963 in Darmstadt ) is a German chemist ( organic chemistry ). She is a professor at the University of Stuttgart .

Life

Sabine Laschat studied chemistry from 1982 at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg with a diploma in 1987 and received her doctorate in organic chemistry in 1990 under Horst Kunz at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz . She then received a scholarship from the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie. She was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Irvine , with Larry E. Overman until 1992 and then at the University of Münster with Gerhard Erker , where she completed her habilitation in organic chemistry in 1995 with a Lise Meitner habilitation scholarship. For her habilitation she received the ADUC annual prize for habilitation candidates. In 1997 she became professor for organic chemistry at the TU Braunschweig and in 2002 full professor for organic chemistry at the University of Stuttgart. From 2010 to 2012 she was Vice Rector for Research and Technology there.

plant

She deals with the synthesis of natural products, partly with the participation of enzymes, oxidation catalysis (with organic catalysts and those made from transition metals), liquid crystals , dyes, the development of ligands for asymmetric catalysis and with biocompatible hydrogels . The latter, as nanobiomaterials, are also being investigated with a view to possible medical applications, such as artificial cartilage for joints. The biomaterials should also be suitable for processing with inkjet printers.

From 2006 to 2010 she was the spokesperson for the Collaborative Research Center 706 ( catalytic selective oxidation of CH bonds with molecular oxygen ).

Awards

In 1995 she received the Bennigsen Foerder Prize of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, in 1996 the Gerhard Hess Prize of the German Research Foundation and in 1997 she received a Heisenberg grant .
