“…18c). 101 The MoO 3 was readily regenerated on exposure to air and thus acts as a catalyst for the overall conversion of the thione and O-atom from the air. Quantitative conversions with excellent selectivity were observed.…”

“…More recently, FVP over molybdenum trioxide has been used in conversion of 1,3-dithiolane-2-thione into 1,3-dioxolan-2-one. 43 The FVP technique has been applied to effectively solve various other problems. It provided the ideal method for generation of the highly reactive and unstable 1,4-oxazine 46 by elimination of CO2 and isobutene from the Boc precursor 45, allowing spectroscopic characterisation of this fundamental heterocycle for the first time.…”

Robert Alan Aitken was born on 27th March 1958 to a farming family in the Dumfries and Galloway area of Southwest Scotland. Despite his rural upbringing, he was not the first scientist in the family since his great grandfather's younger brother, Edward Hamilton Aitken ("EHA", 1851("EHA", -1909, was a noted author and naturalist in India in the days of the Raj and a founder member and first Secretary (1883-1886) of the Bombay Natural History Society. He gave his name to several biological species including five species of Indian ant and a mosquito Anopheles aitkenii. When it came time for university, Alan followed the example of the only previous family member to go to a UK university, his paternal grandmother Rona Macrae (MA, 1925), and went to the University of Edinburgh. There he completed a BSc (1979) with a final year research project on stabilised phosphonium ylides and this was followed by a PhD (1982) on flash vacuum pyrolysis of cyclic sulfones, both projects jointly supervised by Dr Ian Gosney and Professor J. I. G. (later Sir John) Cadogan. He then obtained a Fulbright Scholarship for postdoctoral studies with Professor Albert I. Meyers at Colorado State University, Fort Collins (1982-84) in the area of asymmetric synthesis using nitrogen heterocycles. In 1984 he was awarded a Royal Society Warren Research Fellowship and joined the staff at the University of St Andrews, the first new staff appointment there since 1972. He has remained there ever since and is currently Reader in Organic Chemistry. He has been a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry since 1997.Alan has maintained a small but productive research group and has so far supervised the research of 10 postdoctoral researchers, 29 PhD students, 9 MSc and MPhil students and 145 undergraduate project students. These include coworkers from over 20 countries: Belgium,
