MELVIN S. NEWMAN

Dr. Melvin s. Newman, professor in the department of chemistry

at Ohio State University, is nationally known for his work in syn­

thetic and theoretical organic chemistry. He has been a member of th~

faculty since 1936.

A native of New Orleans, La., Dr. Newman attended Yale Univer­

sity, where he received the bachelor of science degree in chemistry

in 1929 and the Ph.D. degree in 1932.

Among other honors, Professor Newman holds membership in the

National Academy of Sciences, a membership recognized as one of the

highest distinctions which can come to an American scientist.

In 1961, the American Chemical Society announced the selection

of Dr. Newman to receive the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturers'

Association award for his creative work in synthetic organic chemis­

try. Dr. Newman served as chairman of the Division of Organic Chemis­

try of the ACS in 1958.

The author of numerous articles and reports which have appeared

in various scientific journals, Dr. Newman has served on the editorial

board of the Journal of the American Chemical Society and the Journal

of Organic Chemistry. He is the author of a well-known book, "Steric

Effects in Organic Chemistry," published by John Wiley and Sons in .

1956.

Dr. Newman served as visiting professor at UCLA in 1949 and at

the University of Mexico in 1951. In 1957, he was visiting Fulbright

Professor at the University of Glasgow, Scotland and in 1961 he re­

ceived a Fulbright travel grant from the Department of State to lecture

at the University of South Wales, Sydney, Australia. -cb-

~ccomplished chemistry professor dies at age 84 By Tim Haskett Lantern staff writer

Melvin S. N"ewman, professor of chemistry emeritus, died in his home Sunday. He was 84.

"He was a very admired, long-time member of our faculty," said Russell Pitzer, chair of the Department of Chemistry.

Newman received bachelor of science and doctoral degrees from Yale University and joined the faculty of Ohio State in 1936, where he remained his entire career.

In 1956, Newman was recognized for his work in chemistry by his election to the National Academy of Sciences, making him one of only three OSU faculty to share this honor.

In 1976, he received the Joseph Sullivant Medal from Ohio State in addition to numerous other awards and honorary degrees.

As a teacher and researcher at Ohio State, Newman made many advances in the field of organic chemistry.

Among his contributions was the Newman Projection method, known by chemistry students as a standard way

to depict and understand the relative orientation of molecular rectification and stability.

Newman's love for research continued past his retirement in Melvin s. Newman 1978. He was researching the synthesis of new organic compounds a few months ago.

Newman's research and collaboration with others in the field resulted in the publication of 340 scientific papers and two books.

In addition to Newman's research, he had a particular interest and commitment to his students. During his career, he advised 42 masters of science students, 112 doctoral students and 115 postdoctoral fellows.

Newman also worked extensively to provoke the interest of high school students in the field of science.

He is survived by his wife, Beatrice, and their four children.

RESOlUTIONS IN MEMORIAM

Melvin S. Newman

The Board of Trustees of The Ohio State University expresses ~s sorrow upon the death on May 30. 1993. of Melvin s. Newman, Professor Emer"us In the Department of Chemistry.

Professor Newman was born on March 10, 1908, In New Yorl<, New York. and was raised In New Orleans. Louisiana. He anended Yale University (B.S., Magna Cum Laude, 1929; Ph.D .• 1932) and held postdoctoral fellowships at Yale. Columbia, and Harvard Unlvers~les. He Joined the Chemistry Department of The Ohio State University In 1936 as an lnstructOf and was rapidly promoted, becoming Professor In 1944. In 1965, he was named one of the first three Regents Professors at Ohio State, a title he held untU his retirement In 1978. Professor Newman was a distinguished teacher and researcher In Organic Chemistry. He was a superb lecturer who Inspired experimental skU! and research productivity In his students and his colleagues. WhUe always canylng out his own laboratory program, Dr. Newman directed the research of 118 postdoctoral fellows, I 12 Ph.D.s. 42 M.S. candidates and many superior high school science students. Many of Prof9SS()( Newman's students have become outstanding academic and Industrial scientists. He was the author of over 350 scientific publications and two books: Sterle Effects In Oraanlc Chemistry CMJey. 1956) and An A<lvanced Omanlc Laboratory Course (Macmillan, 1972).

Dr. Newman's research contrtbutions Included: synthesis and the cancer-producing behavior of polybenzenold hydrocarbons, steric accel001tlon and retardation In chemlcaJ reactions. new ster1cally·straloed compounds, generation and capture ot unsaturated carbenes. novel synthetic methods. advantageous preparation of vitamin A. and the effects of shape on chemical behavior. His end"" representations of moleoJar structure have had maJor effective In understanding the behavior of ·molectAes and are known to chemistry students woridwlde as Newman ProJection FonntAas.

Professor Newman S&Ned as a FtAbright Lecturer and a Guggeohelm Fellow and was elected to the National Academy of Sciences In 1956. He received the Synthe!Jc Organic Chemistry Award from the American Chemical Soclety In 1961 ; the Mooey Medal from the Oeveland ACS Section In 1969; the Cross Medal from Yale University In 1970; the StA!Ivant Medal from The Ohio State University In 1975; the Columbus ACS Section Award In 1976; and the Roger Adams Award In Organic Chemistry from the American Chemical Society In 1979.

He was awarded honorary DoctOf ot Science degrees from the University of New Orleans. The Ohio State UnlversJty, and Bowling Green State University. Profes5()(' Newman was a member ot editorial boards c:A Organic Syntheses the Journal of Organic C!lemis11Y. the Journal of the American Qlemlcal Society. and Synthetic Communications. The M.S. Newman Professorship was established at The Ohio State University In 1979. Profes5()(' Newman also served as a consultant for many maJor chemical companies. He was a lover of the music c:A Louis Armstrong. golf courses all over the world, and above all, his personal laboratory at Ohio State which he used on a daly basis until his death.

On behalf of the University, the Board of Trustees expresses to the famiy of Professor Newman its deep sympathy and sense of understanding in their toss. It was directed that this resolution be Inscribed upon the minutes ot the Board of Trustees and that a copy be tendered to the family as an expression of the Board's heartfelt sympathy.
