Elias James Corey (born July 12, 1928) is an American organic chemist. In 1990, he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for his development of the theory and methodology of organic synthesis ", [ 3 ] specifically retrosynthetic analysis .
The first total syntheses of prostaglandin F 2α and prostaglandin E 2 were reported by Elias James Corey in 1969, [9] an achievement for which he was awarded the Japan Prize in 1989. In 1971, it was determined that aspirin -like drugs could inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins.

The Corey–Seebach reaction, or Seebach Umpolung is a name reaction of organic chemistry that allows for acylation by converting aldehydes into lithiated 1,3-dithianes. The lithiated 1,3-dithianes serves as an acyl anion equivalent, undergoing alkylation with electrophiles . [ 1 ]
The Corey–House synthesis (also called the Corey–Posner–Whitesides–House reaction and other permutations) is an organic reaction that involves the reaction of a lithium diorganylcuprate with an organic halide or pseudohalide (′) to form a new alkane, as well as an ill-defined organocopper species and lithium (pseudo)halide as byproducts.
Biochemistry – study of chemical processes in living organisms, including living matter. Biochemistry governs all living organisms and living processes.
The Johnson–Corey–Chaykovsky reaction (sometimes referred to as the Corey–Chaykovsky reaction or CCR) is a chemical reaction used in organic chemistry for the synthesis of epoxides, aziridines, and cyclopropanes. It was discovered in 1961 by A. William Johnson and developed significantly by E. J. Corey and Michael Chaykovsky
