Cotton ist bekannt für seine Arbeiten über die Chemie von Übergangsmetallen, organometallische Verbindungen und Metallcluster, Kristallfeldtheorie, Metall-Metall Bindungen und für seine Lehrbücher. 1964 beschrieb er die erste Vierfachbindung, das Octachloridodirhenat(III)-Ion (Re 2 Cl 8 2−).
Frank Albert Cotton FRS (April 9, 1930 – February 20, 2007) [1] was an American chemist. He was the W.T. Doherty-Welch Foundation Chair and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Texas A&M University. He authored over 1600 scientific articles. [2] . Cotton was recognized for his research on the chemistry of the transition metals .
13. Apr. 2007 · Cotton was a world-renowned researcher and educator, and one of a small number of scientists credited with the renaissance of inorganic chemistry that began in the 1950s. His work led to a new appreciation for the diverse structural, bonding, and reactivity properties of transition-metal complexes.
F. (Frank) Albert Cotton. Recognition of the structural and theoretical significance of the rhenium-rhenium quadruple bond (in Re 2 Cl 82-) by Cotton in 1964 led to the systematic exploration of metal-metal multiple bonding in transition metal complexes.
