Waldvogel’s research focuses on organic electrochemistry, oxidative coupling reactions with MoV-reagents, and supramolecular sensing. His research lab works on electrolysis development including upscaling electrosynthetic conversions. Anodic as well as cathodic transformations are investigated and outlined in almost 220 publications and patents in this area.
Organic and Biological Electrochemistry Division Manuel M. Baizer Award
The Organic and Biological Electrochemistry Division Manuel M. Baizer Award was established in 1992 to recognize individuals for their outstanding scientific achievements in the electrochemistry of organics and organometallic compounds, carbon-based polymers and biomass, whether fundamental or applied, and including but not limited to synthesis, mechanistic studies, engineering of processes, electrocatalysis, devices such as sensors, pollution control, and separation/recovery. (Specifically excluded are the development of electroanalytical methods and purely physical electrochemistry.)
About Manuel M. Baizer
Manuel Baizer was a leading internationally recognized chemist and authority on organic electrosynthesis. Baizer’s milestone contributions as researcher and author led to the successful industrial process of the production of adiponitrile by electrolytic reductive coupling of acrylonitrile.
