This prize was established to commemorate the life and work of Sir Ronald Nyholm, president of the Chemical Society from 1968 to 1970.

Sir Nyholm was born in New South Wales, Australia and his work centred on coordination (metal complex) chemistry, particular on arsines as ligands. Alongside his research activities in this area, he was also an ardent campaigner for the improvement of science education. He undertook roles as a chemistry teacher and lecturer in various institutions in both the UK and Australia. Whilst involved with the 新月直播app下载, he played a large and leading role in the launch of 新月直播app下载 journal Education in Chemistry.

The Prize was formerly known as the Sir Ronald Nyholm Lectureship and was awarded by the Education and Dalton Division in alternate years. The Nyholm Prize for Education recognises achievements by those working in education in the chemical sciences, whilst as of 2020, the Mond-Nyholm Prize for Inorganic Chemistry rewards those in the field of inorganic chemistry.
