Sažetak
Professor Smiljko Ašperger is distinguished member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (CASA). He was born in Zagreb and educated in Đakovo and Osijek, where he graduated high school. He got the degree in chemical engineering in 1943 at the Technical Faculty in Zagreb and the Ph.D. at the same faculty in 1946. His distinguished teachers at the Technical faculty were Vladimir Prelog and Rativoj Seiwerth and he did research for his Ph.D. Thesis under the guidance of Karlo Weber. Ašperger did postdoctoral research with Sir Christopher Kilk Ingold in the University College in London and with William H. Saunders, Jr. at the University of Rochester in USA. He was professor at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Bichemistry in Zagreb and the head of the Laboratory of Chemical Kinetics at the IRB. Ašperger is a full member of the CASA since 1991. All his scientific life he was studying chemical kinetics and reactions mechanisms. His most important achivements are the discovery that the fotooxydation of glycerol and ethilenglykol in aqueous solution with potassium bichromate slows down the reaction with the increase of the temperature and the discovery of the α-deuterium effect.
