Biographies
Reinhard Bruckner
(born 1955) studied chemistry at the Lud-
wig-Maximilians-Universität München, acquiring his doctoral
degree under the supervision of Rolf Huisgen. After postdoctoral
studies with Paul A. Wender (Stanford University), he completed
his habilitation in collaboration with Reinhard Hoffmann
(Philipps-Universität Marburg). He was appointed associate pro-
fessor at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg and full
professor at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen before he
moved to his current position in 1998 (Albert-Ludwigs-
Universität Freiburg). Professor Bruckner´s research interests are
the total synthesis of natural products and the development of synthetic methodology. Besides
being the author of 150 publications he has written 4 textbooks, for one of which he was
awarded the Literature Prize of the Foundation of the German Chemical Industry. He has been
a Visiting Professor in the US, Spain, and Japan, and served as an elected peer reviewer of the
German Research Foundation and as the Vice-President of the Division of Organic Chemistry
of the German Chemical Society.
Michael Harmata
was born in Chicago on September 22, 1959.
He obtained his A.B. in chemistry from the University of Illinois-
Chicago in 1980. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Illi-
nois-Champaign/Urbana working with Scott E. Denmark on the
carbanion-accelerated Claisen rearrangement. He was an NIH
postdoctoral fellow in the labs of Paul A. Wender at Stanford Uni-
versity, where he focused on synthetic work involving the neo-
carzinostatin chromophore. He joined the faculty at the Univer-
sity of Missouri-Columbia in 1986 and is now the Norman
Rabjohn Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at that institution.
Professor Harmata’s research interests span a large range of chemistry and include molecular
tweezers, [4+3]-cycloadditions, pericyclic reactions of cyclopentadienones and benzothiazine
chemistry. He enjoys cooking, reading, stamp collecting, and recently earned his black belt in
Taekwondo.
I dedicate this book to my family,
who serve to support me in my pursuit of science
and provide the love that so enriches my life.
