Donald Holroyde Hey (12 September 1904 – 21 January 1987) was a Welsh organic chemist known for discovering free radicals in solution. Born, raised, and educated in Swansea, he later moved to Manchester and then London for further studies. Hey discussed his famous theory that benzoyl peroxide generates free radicals (phenyl radicals) during decomposition in a paper he published in 1934. However, the paper and the idea went unacknowledged for another twenty years.
