Japanese chemist
Masakatsu Shibasaki (柴崎 正勝,Shibasaki Masakatsu; born 25 January 1947) is aJapanesechemist. In 1974 he earned hisdoctorate inchemistry, in the group of Shun’ichi Yamada. He did a post doc withElias J. Corey atHarvard. He returned to Japan and became a professor in 1977 atTeikyō University and moved toHokkaidō University in 1986. 1983–1986 Shibasaki was a research group leader at theSagami chemical research center. From 1991 until 2010 he served as professor atTokyo University. Since 2010 he is representative director of Microbial Chemistry Research Foundation (Chemistry), Tokyo. He is perhaps best known for developing a range ofbinol based heterobimetallic catalysts, which nowbear his name.
