}}The Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation is a New York City-based foundation founded in 1946 by chemist and investor Camille Dreyfus in honour of his brother, Henry Dreyfus.[2] The two men invented Celanese, and Henry Dreyfus was founder and chairman of British Celanese, parent of the Celanese Corporation of America.[3]

The foundation makes grants and awards prizes in support of chemistry research and education.[2][4][5][6][7]

In 2009, the foundation awarded the first Dreyfus Prize in the Chemical Sciences (a citation, a medal, and a monetary award of $250,000) to George M. Whitesides of Harvard University for his work in the field of materials chemistry.[8]

In 2011, the foundation awarded the second Dreyfus Prize in the Chemical Sciences to Tobin J. Marks of Northwestern University for his work in the field of catalysis.

In 2013, the foundation awarded the third Dreyfus Prize in the Chemical Sciences to R. Graham Cooks of Purdue University for this work in chemical instrumentation.

In 2015, the foundation awarded the fourth Dreyfus Prize in the Chemical Sciences to Krzysztof Matyjaszewski of Carnegie Mellon University for his work in polymer chemistry.{{cn|date=October 2015}}

In 2017, the foundation awarded the fifth Dreyfus Prize in the Chemical Sciences Michele Parrinello of USI Università della Svizzera italiana and ETH Zurich in the field of theoretical and computational chemistry.

In 1971, the foundation sold a significant part of its holdings in the Celanese company.[9]
