Arthur Lapworth FRS [1] (10 October 1872 – 5 April 1941) was a Scottish chemist .
Mason Science College, now the University of Birmingham
He was born in Galashiels , Scotland, the son of geologist Charles Lapworth , and educated at St Andrew's and King Edward VI Five Ways School, Birmingham . He graduated in chemistry from Mason College (later Birmingham University ). From 1893 to 1895 he worked on a scholarship at City and Guilds of London Institute on the chemistry of camphor and the 3
mechanism of aromatic substitution.[1]
His first post, in 1895, was as a demonstrator in the School of Pharmacy, University of London in Bloomsbury. He became head of the chemistry department of Goldsmiths Institute , and in 1909 became senior lecturer in inorganic and physical chemistry at the University of Manchester . In 1913 he was appointed professor of organic chemistry; and in 1922, the Sir Samuel Hall Professor (of inorganic and physical chemistry) and director of laboratories.
He was a pioneer of the field of physical organic chemistry . His proposal for the reaction mechanism for the benzoin condensation is the basis for our modern-day understanding of organic chemistry.[2] [3] [4]
He retired in 1935 and was appointed Professor Emeritus. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in May 1910,[1] and was awarded their Davy Medal in 1931.[5] Lapworth was also an Hon. LL.D. of Birmingham and of St Andrews universities.
He married Kathleen Florence Holland at St Mary, Bridgwater on 14 September 1900.[6] Her brothers were eminent scientists themselves, in 1900. (Frederick Stanley Kipping and William Henry Perkin, Jr. ). Arthur Lapworth retired in 1935 and died on 5 April 1941 in a nursing home in Withington .
