Hans-Conrad zur Loye, the David W. Robinson Palmetto Professor and associate dean for research in the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of South Carolina, is the recipient of the 2011 Southern Chemist Award for outstanding achievement in chemistry and contributions to the field that have brought recognition to the South.

Zur Loye is a leader in the field of transition-metal oxide chemistry and organic-inorganic coordination polymers. His research has led to new methods in the growth of single crystals of novel oxides that are at the forefront of solid-state chemistry and to new oxide electrode materials for solid oxide fuel cells.

The award, sponsored by the ACS Memphis Section, consists of a medal and an honorarium. Zur Loye’s achievements were recognized during a section meeting in Memphis in December.
