Mohammad Mahmoudi Hashemi (Persian: محمد محمودی هاشمی) is an Iranian organic chemist and a distinguished retired professor (Professor Emeritus) at Sharif University of Technology. He is noted as a top 1% highly cited researcher globally and has been recognized by the university as a distinguished professor.[1][2]
Education
[edit]Hashemi earned his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Nevada, Reno in 1980.[3]
Career and academic recognition
[edit]Hashemi was a long-serving faculty member in the Department of Chemistry at Sharif University of Technology. His research interests include organic synthesis, oxidation of organic compounds, solid-supported reagents, the application of microwave irradiation in organic chemistry, and the chemistry of aromatic compounds.[3]
Due to his contributions, he was formally recognized by the university as a "Distinguished Professor" (Persian: استاد برجسته). His career and role in the university's history were documented in a multi-part oral history interview conducted by the Sharif University Archives in 2024.[2] According to Sharif University's academic metrics system, Hashemi is listed among the top 1% most highly cited researchers globally based on citation analysis data.[1]
Research contributions
[edit]Hashemi's research has focused on several areas of organic chemistry, with particular emphasis on:
Oxidation chemistry
[edit]His work has included research on the oxidation of organic compounds using various catalytic systems. His group has published research on selective oxidation processes for converting alcohols to carbonyl compounds using copper-based catalysts.[4]
Multicomponent reactions
[edit]His research group has contributed to the development of multicomponent reactions, including the synthesis of spirooxindoles and other heterocyclic compounds using one-pot synthetic approaches.[5]
Notable students
[edit]During his tenure, Hashemi supervised numerous graduate students, including:
- Saeed Balalaie – recipient of the Khwarizmi International Award (2019). Balalaie completed his Ph.D. under Hashemi's supervision, working on "Photooxygenation of organic compounds by singlet oxygen".[6]
