"Philip S. Skell"Bio:
(1918 - 2010)
http://www.nasonline.org/member-directory/deceased-members/50397.html
Philip S. Skell, sometimes called "the father of carbene chemistry," is widely known for the "Skell Rule," which was first applied to carbenes, the "fleeting species" of carbon. The rule, which predicts the most probable pathway through which certain chemical compounds will be formed, found use throughout the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
