The Victor Grignard - Georg Wittig Lecture is a cooperation between the German Chemical Society eV and the Société Chimique de France. Grignard and Wittig - both big names in chemistry, both Nobel Prize winners in chemistry.
Victor Grignard received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1912 together with Paul Sabatier for his discovery of the alkyl magnesium compounds, which are named after Grignard compounds. These compounds play a major role in organic chemistry. Georg Wittig and Herbert Charles Brown received the 1979 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their discovery of the Wittig reaction named after him. This enables the synthesis of alkenes by reacting aldehydes or ketones with ylides.
In 1994 the first Victor Grignard - Georg Wittig lecture took place. The winner was Jean-Pierre Majoral from Toulouse in France. Since then, renowned chemists from Germany and France have been honored on a regular basis.
