Robinson, Sir Robert (1886-1975) British organic chemist. Sir Robert Robinson made many important contributions to experimental and theoretical organic chemistry. His experimental work concerned plant products, particularly the alkaloids. Robinson won the 1947 Nobel Prize for chemistry for this work. His theoretic work concerned the role of electrons in organic reactions. He originated the representation of electronic transfer by curly arrows. In particular, he applied these ideas for benzene and its chemical reactions using concepts such as electrophilic reagents and nucleophilic reagents.
