Franklin Davis received his BS degree in chemistry from the University of Wisconsin and a Ph.D. from Syracuse University (1966) with Donald Dittmer, exploring thiete (thiacyclobutene) chemistry. Following postdoctoral work with Michael J. S. Dewar at the University of Texas developing organoboron chemistry, he joined the faculty at Drexel University in 1968, initiating studies in organosulfur chemistry and asymmetric reagent development. In 1986 he was named the George S. Sasin Professor of Organic Chemistry. In 1995 he moved across town to Temple University.
