Abstract
Vijay Nair, one of India's most prominent organic chemists, passed away on April 12, 2024 at the age of 82. After a distinguished research career in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry, he returned to India to lead what was to become the National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology (NIIST). During this second phase of his career, he made fundamentally important contributions to the art of organic synthesis and mentored a number of organic chemists.
