Christopher Spencer Foote (June 5, 1935 – June 13, 2005) was a professor of chemistry at UCLA and an expert in reactive oxygen species, in particular, singlet oxygen.〔Greer, A. "Christopher Foote's Discovery of the Role of Singlet Oxygen (1O2, 1Δg) in Photosensitized Oxidation Reactions", ''Accounts of Chemical Research'' 2006, ''39'', 797-804〕 He published 259 articles, editorials, and notes. He was cited over 14,000 times with an average of 450 citations per year since 1989. He has an h-index of 67.〔ISI Science Citation Index citation report excluding meeting abstracts and corrections. Accessed Feb 2, 2009.〕 He was also known for his textbook ''Organic Chemistry'' (with Brown and Iverson; 5th ed., Brooks/Cole Pub Co., ISBN 978-0-495-38857-9).〔.〕〔(UCLA Chemist Christopher Spencer Foote Died at Age 70 ), UCLA Chemistry Department.〕 The American Chemical Society gave him their Baekeland award in 1975, named him a Cope Scholar in 1994, and gave him the Tolman Medal in 1996. In 2000 an international symposium in honor of his 65th birthday was held in Hawaii.〔(Photos from Foote symposium. )〕 The Christopher S. Foote Chair of chemistry at UCLA, currently held by Omar M. Yaghi, is named after him. ==Education== *B.S. Yale University (1957) *Ph.D. Harvard University, Organic Chemistry, (1962) Research advisor, R.B.
