| Biography | | Chuchani is known for
his important research in homogeneous, unimolecular gas phase pyrolysis or
elimination of organic molecules and, in particular, about their mechanisms.
Through this work, he has provided highly reliable data and a number of
challenging problems to quantum chemistry, reaction kinetics, and organic
reactivity. Conceptually, his research has broadened the area of mechanistic
organic chemistry to the gas phase, where it can be connected to gas phase ion
chemistry. He is currently Emeritus Professor in Chemistry, Instituto
Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas (IVIC), Caracas, Venezuela. He has
received national as well as international awards and is a member of a number
of scientific academies and societies. |
