Shun-Ichi Murahashi (born 1937) received his PhD from Osaka University (Japan) under Ichiro Moritani, before spending two years as a postdoctoral fellow in Ronald Breslow's group at Columbia University, New York. He joined the faculty of Osaka University upon his MS and was appointed full professor in 1979. He is now an Emeritus Professor of the university, having taken up a chair at the Okayama University of Science in 2001.
Professor Murahashi holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Rennes (France) and is the recipient of numerous scientific awards, including the Award of the Chemical Society of Japan, the Humboldt Research Award, and the Minakata-Avogadro Award.
His current research is focused on organometallic chemistry directed towards organic synthesis, biomimetic catalytic oxidation, ruthenium and palladium chemistry, and non-salt green processes.
