Yuri Timofeevich Struchkov (Russian: Юрий Тимофеевич Стручков) (28 July 1926, Moscow — 16 August 1995, Charleston, South Carolina) was a Russian and Soviet chemist. He was a prominent scientist in the field X-ray crystallography, a Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences (1990) and the vice-president of the International Union of Crystallography (1993-1995). Struchkov was the founder and the first Director of the X-Ray Structural Laboratory of Nesmeyanov Institute of Organoelement Compounds and X-Ray Structural Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS). He made important contributions to the fields of chemistry and crystallography of organic, organoelement and coordination compounds. As an author and co-author of more than 1000 papers, published between 1980 and 1990, he became the most widely published scientist of the decade. In 2021, the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) honored his contributions to the field of small molecule structural crystallography, establishing the Struchkov Prize, which is awarded to the young crystallographers at the regular triennial IUCr International Congress of Crystallography.
