Frank Albert Cotton FRS (April 9, 1930 – February 20, 2007) was an American chemist. He was the W.T. Doherty-Welch Foundation Chair and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Texas A&M University .
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.
23. Feb. 2007 · F. A. Cotton died this week, and another gigantic name in chemistry departs. As an inorganic chemist, he was technically outside my field, but no one's really outside the range of influence of someone like that.
