Vladimir Viktorovich Sharutin is the doctor of chemistry, professor, Honored Science Worker of the Russian Federation, senior researcher at the Department of Research and Development Department (SUSU), and the founder and Head of the South Ural Scientific School of Organic Chemistry Specialists.
He graduated from Gorky State University in 1974 and worked as an intern researcher, junior researcher at the Institute of Chemistry of the USSR Academy of Sciences in Gorky. In 1982, he defended his PhD dissertation on Ferrocenyl and Cimantrenyl Compounds of Metals of IV-V groups. From 1989 to 1990, he worked as a senior teacher; in 1991-1994 he held the position of assistant professor at the Chemistry Department of Amur State University. In 1995, Prof Sharutin defended his doctorate dissertation on Pentaphenyl Compounds of Phosphorus, Antimony, Bismuth and Their Derivatives and Their Application in Organic Synthesis. In 1996-2002, he was the head and professor of Chemistry Department at Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University. In 2011, he started working at South Ural State University. At SUSU, Prof Sharutin heads such the Chemistry Laboratory of Organoelement Compounds and the Laboratory of X-ray Structural Analysis.
Prof Sharutin studies chemistry of organoelement compounds. He has significantly contributed to the establishment of the National Chemistry School of Antimony and Bismuth Compounds, widely known in Russia and abroad for many achievements in fundamental and applied chemistry. The reactions of oxidation and phenylation of alcohols and phenols by the phenyl derivatives of antimony and bismuth discovered by V.V. Sharunin initiated the use of these derivatives in fine organic synthesis. Together with his students, Prof Sharutin discovered new types of organoelement compounds, studied the structural features of many phosphorus compounds, antimony, bismuth, cadmium, mercury, silver, gold, ruthenium, osmium, cobalt, rhodium, iridium, palladium, and platinum.
Professor Sharutin has supervised 3 doctoral students and 17 PhDs; each of his students has made major contribution to the development of chemistry of organoelement compounds.
Prof Sharutin has published more than 600 research papers and reports. He is the author of 8 monographs. Among the recent ones are Nomial reactions in Chemistry of Organoelement Compounds and Molecular Structure of Antimony Organic Compounds. The monographs are published at South Ural State University.
In 2003, Professor Sharutin was awarded the MAIC Publishing House award for chemistry papers on aryl compounds of antimony and bismuth. The papers were published in Coordination Chemistry.
Professor Sharutin is known for his enthusiasm, passion for work and perseverance. When he was young, Prof Sharutin did professional speed skating. In addition, his sports interests include skiing, biking, swimming, racing and roller skating.
