Curt Wentrup was educated at the University of Copenhagen (Cand. Scient. 1966 with K. A. Jensen; D.Sc. 1976) and the Australian National University (Ph.D. 1969 with W. D. Crow). After post-doctoral periods with Hans Dahn (Lausanne), W. M. Jones (Gainesville, FL) and Maitland Jones, Jr (Princeton, NJ), he held academic positions at the Université de Lausanne, Switzerland, and a professorship at the Universität Marburg, Germany (1976–85), before returning to Australia in 1985 as Professor and Chair of Organic Chemistry and Head of the Organic Chemistry Section at the University of Queensland, where he is now Emeritus Professor. He is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, a recipient of the Centenary Medal of the Australian Commonwealth (2003), the David Craig Medal of the Australian Academy of Science (2014), the A. J. Birch Medal (2014) and the Leighton Medal (2018) of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute, and an honorary doctorate from the Université de Pau, France (2014). He collaborates intensely with research groups in France, Germany, Japan, and China on experimental and theoretical investigations of reactive intermediates using flash vacuum pyrolysis, matrix isolation, and matrix photochemistry.
