Krische (FRSC, FAAAS) is an American chemist and Robert A.
Welch Chair in Science at the Department of Chemistry, University of Texas at Austin.
Krische has pioneered a broad, new family of catalytic C-C bond formations that occur through the addition or redistribution of hydrogen.
These processes merge the characteristics of catalytic hydrogenation and carbonyl addition, contributing to a departure from the use of stoichiometric organometallic reagents in chemical synthesis.
