Mimi Hii's Biography



Mimi Hii, Professor, Imperial College London

Dr Hii graduated with First Class Honours in Chemistry from the University of Leeds. She conducted postgraduate studies with Prof. B. L. Shaw, FRS, followed by postdoctoral work at Oxford University with Dr. J. M. Brown, FRS. During this period, she was awarded a Junior Research Fellowship by Wadham College.

She initiated independent research in 1997 when she was awarded a Ramsay Memorial Fellowship, co-sponsored by ICI Strategic Research Funding. A year later, she was appointed to a Lectureship at King’s College London, before moving to a Senior Lectureship at Imperial College (2003), where she was promoted to a readership in 2009. Her research interests are in the development and applications of catalytic processes for organic synthesis. Research projects include the development of homo- and hetero-geneous catalysts for atom-economical synthetic methodologies. In the last 5 years, she has initiated research program on catalytic flow chemistry. To date, she has published 6 patents, 7 book Chapters/monographs and >90 research papers, with an H-index of 28 (May 2013). She is a co-editor of the book: “Sustainable Catalysis: Challenges and Practices for the Pharmaceutical and Fine Chemical Industries”, John Wiley & Sons, 2013.

In this presentation, the development of heterogeneous catalyst systems for the atom-efficient oxidative transformations of alcohols to carbonyls, amines, esters and amides will be described. The use of both differential and integral reactors to achieve very high selectivity through the manipulation of temperature, stoichiometry and addition rates.
