    Nevil Vincent Sidgwick was a British chemist born in 1873 and died in 1952. He made contributions to electronic theory including work on ortho-nitrophenol and intramolecular hydrogen bonding in 1924, proposing the inert pair effect in 1927, and correlating molecular geometry with the number of valence electrons on a central atom in 1940, work which was later expanded into VSEPR theory.
