2. Rudolph A. Marcus - Biography
rudolph A. marcus – Autobiography. Hinshelwood was later the recipientof the nobel Prize for his work on chemical kinetics.
http://www.nobel.se/chemistry/laureates/1992/marcus-autobio.html
My first encounters with McGill University came when I was still in a baby carriage. My mother used to wheel me about the campus when we lived in that neighborhood and, as she recounted years later, she would tell me that I would go to McGill. There was some precedent for my going there, since two of my father's brothers received their M.D.'s at McGill.
I have always loved going to school. Since neither of my parents had a higher education, my academic "idols" were these two paternal uncles and one of their uncles, my great-uncle, Henrik Steen (né Markus). My admiration for him, living in faraway Sweden, was not because of a teol.dr. (which he received from the University of Uppsala in 1915) nor because of the many books he wrote - I knew nothing of that - but rather because he was reputed to speak 13 languages. I learned decades later that the number was only 9! Growing up, mostly in Montreal, I was an only child of loving parents. I admired my father's athletic prowess - he excelled in several sports - and my mother's expressive singing and piano playing.
My interest in the sciences started with mathematics in the very beginning, and later with chemistry in early high school and the proverbial home chemistry set. My education at Baron Byng High School was excellent, with dedicated masters (boys and girls were separate). I spent the next years at McGill University, for both undergraduate and, as was the custom of the time, graduate study. Our graduate supervisor, Carl A. Winkler, specialized in rates of chemical reactions. He himself had received his Ph.D. as a student of

10. Marcus
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 1992 nobel Prize inChemistry to Professor rudolph A. marcus, California Institute of Technology
http://www.geocities.com/bioelectrochemistry/marcus.htm
Rudolph Arthur Marcus
(born 1923)

Born July 21, 1923 in Montreal, Canada. Married Laura Hearne, 1949 (three sons: Alan, Kenneth, and Raymond). Marcus is a winner of the 1992 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for his work on the theory of electron-transfer reactions in chemical systems. The Marcus theory shed light on diverse and fundamental phenomena such as photosynthesis, cell metabolism, and simple corrosion.
Marcus received his doctorate from McGill University, Montreal, in 1946. In 1949 he went to the US, and became a naturalized citizen there in 1958. From 1951 he worked at the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. In 1964 he joined the faculty of the University of Illinois, leaving in 1978 for the California Institute of Technology.
Professor Marcus is a theoretical chemist (a chemist who does calculations rather than experiments) now working at the California Institute of Technology. Professor Marcus' involvement with theoretical chemistry began when he was at the National Research Council in Ottawa. He had a habit of breaking equipment and that would put his research on hold until the device was fixed again. He has said, "If you are going to do theoretical work, breaking your pencil does not have such disastrous effects." As it turns out, the switch from experiment to theory was a good one. Dr. Marcus has been extremely successful in his chosen line of research.
Marcus began studying electron-transfer reactions in the 1950s. In a series of papers published between 1956 and 1965, he investigated the role of surrounding solvent molecules in determining the rate of redox reactionsoxidation and reduction reactions in which the reactants exchange electronsin solution. Marcus determined that subtle changes occur in the molecular structure of the reactants and the solvent molecules around them; these changes influence the ability of electrons to move between the molecules. He further established that the relationship between the driving force of an electron-transfer reaction and the reaction's rate is described by a parabola. Thus, as more driving force is applied to a reaction, its rate at first increases but then begins to decrease. This insight aroused considerable skepticism until it was confirmed experimentally in the 1980s.

12 October 1992
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences
has decided to award the 1992 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
to Professor Rudolph A. Marcus , California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California, USA for his contributions to the theory of electron transfer reactions in chemical systems
A THEORY CLOSE TO REALITY
Professor Rudolph A. Marcus is being rewarded for his theoretical work on electron transfer - work which has greatly stimulated experimental developments in chemistry. The processes Marcus has studied, the transfer of electrons between molecules in solution, underlie a number of exceptionally important chemical phenomena, and the practical consequences of his theory extend over all areas of chemistry. The Marcus theory describes, and makes predictions concerning, such widely differing phenomena as the fixation of light energy by green plants, photochemical production of fuel, chemiluminescence ("cold light"), the conductivity of electrically conducting polymers, corrosion, the methodology of electrochemical synthesis and analysis, and more.
From 1956 to 1965 Professor Marcus developed his theory for what is perhaps the simplest chemical elementary process, the transfer of an electron between two molecules. No chemical bonds are broken in such a reaction, but changes take place in the molecular structure of the reacting molecules and their nearest neighbours. This molecular change enables the electrons to jump between the molecules.
