Letter from Professor Jiro Tsuji, Department of Chemical Technology, Jurashiki University of Science and Arts, Tsurajima, Kurashiki, Okayama, Japan; to Dr. Richard Heck, Naples, Florida, with Heck’s reply, 1997 October. Dr. Tsuji invited Dr. Heck to participate in two projects. The first was to speak at a symposium on September 11, 1998, in Japan on “Past and Present of Organopalladium Chemistry.” The second request was to accept the dedication of a special issue of the Journal of Organolmetallic Chemistry, which Heck accepted and provided the requested “personal history and research resume” and list of “significant publications of R.F. Heck.” The folder also includes paper copies of the overhead transparencies and slide notes for the 1998 presentation.
