Professor Konrad Seppelt is a chemist who leads a research group at the Institute of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, Freie Universität Berlin (Institut für Anorganische und Analytische Chemie der Freien Universität Berlin).

Positions held include:

  • 1969-1979: Various positions at the University of Heidelberg
  • 1980+: Professor of Chemistry at the Institute of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, Freie Universität Berlin (Institut für Anorganische und Analytische Chemie der Freien Universität Berlin)
  • 1974-1975: Visiting professor: U. of California, Berkeley
  • 1982: Wilsmore Fellowship: U. of Melbourne
  • 1992-1995: Served both as Dean and Vice President of the Freie Universitaet Berlin

Konrad Seppelt was the first chemist in the world that managed to form a Compound between a noble gas and a noble Metal (between Xenon and Gold). The result was surprising to many Chemists around the world.
