One reaction named after this man usually uses a stream of nitrogen gas to carry one product to a chilled receiver, and it can only proceed if a certain intermediate contains at least one beta-hydrogen. Another reaction named after this chemist has an Oxy- variety that has an enolate intermediate and proceeds up to 1017 times faster than the standard version; that reaction produces anti-3,4 diastereomers when starting with the E,E or Z,Z variety of a certain reactant. The aforementioned reactions produce, respectively, anti-Zaitsev alkenes after heating tertiary amine oxides to 150 degrees and regioisomeric isomers of the original 1,5-dienes; the latter is complementary to the Hoffman elimination. For 10 points, name this American chemist, the namesake of an [3, 3]-sigmatropic rearrangement and elimination.
