He was born in Galashiels, Scotland, the son of geologist Charles Lapworth and educated at St Andrew's and King Edward's School, Birmingham. He graduated in Chemistry from Mason College (later Birmingham University). From 1893 to 1895 he worked on a scholarship at City and Guilds of London Institute on the chemistry of camphor and the mechanism of aromatic substitution. His first post (in 1895) was as a Demonstrator in the School of Pharmacy, University of London in Bloomsbury. From there he went to the Goldsmiths Institute as head of the Chemistry Department and in 1909 became Senior Lecturer in Inorganic and Physical chemistry at the University of Manchester. In 1913 he was appointed Professor of Organic Chemistry and in 1922 the Sir Samuel Hall professor (of inorganic and physical chemistry) and Director of Laboratories. He was a pioneer of the field of physical organic chemistry. The Lapworth reaction mechanism is named after him. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in May 1910,〔 and was awarded their Davy Medal in 1931.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Library and Archive Catalogue )〕 He retired in 1935 and died in Manchester.
