The Wilhelm Klemm Prize is awarded to outstanding chemists in the field of inorganic chemistry. The prize was donated by Degussa AG, Frankfurt am Main in 1984 and has been financed by the GDCh since 1996. Wilhelm Klemm was an important inorganic chemist. The elements Klemm was most interested in are ytterbium, nickel, cesium, germanium and fluorine. The element symbols are stamped on the medal.
Professor Dr. Michael Ruck is being honored for his broad-based and conceptually unusual work, which starts from classical inorganic solid-state chemistry and continues to develop. His groundbreaking contributions range from synthesis and structural characterization to nanomaterials and coordination compounds, and also include the discovery of the fibrous modification of the element phosphorus, known as Ruck's phosphorus.
