Boris Pavlovitch Belousov performed the key work on this chemical reaction while head of the laboratory of biophysics attached to the Soviet Ministry of Health in the early 1950s.
Unfortunately for Belousov, the reaction was so peculiar that he had great trouble in convincing the scientific establishment.
The discovery of Belousov and the many variants subsequently developed have together come to be known as the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction.

 Belousov - Zhabotinsky   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The modern history of the study of oscillating chemical reactions in the liquid phase began in Russia in 1951, when B. Belousov discovered temporal oscillations in the ratio [Ce(IV)]/[Ce(III)] during the cerium-ion-catalyzed oxidation of citric acid in acidic bromate.
However, Belousov was not able to get his discovery published until 1958.
The first English translation of Belousov´s original manuscript appeared in Oscillations and Traveling Waves in Chemical Systems a book edited by Richard J. Field and Mária Burger (Wiley, 1985, ISBN 0-471-89384-6).

In this sense, they provide an interesting chemical model of nonequilibrium biological phenomena, and the mathematical model of the BZ reactions themselves are of theoretical interest.
The discovery of the original phenomenology is credited to Boris Belousov.
He noted, sometime in the 1950s (the dates change depending on source, but it ranges from 1951 to 1958), that in a mix of potassium bromate, cerium(IV) sulfate, and citric acid in dilute sulfuric acid, the ratio of concentration of the cerium(IV) and cerium(III) ions oscillated.

In the 1950s, a Russian biochemist, Boris Pavlovitch Belousov, investigated a mixture of chemical compounds which he believed would mimic the process of glycolysis, with the advantage that he could brew them up in large quantities in a test tube.
The regular pulse of a heart is the result of 'travelling waves' of electrical activity communicated from cell to cell in the heart muscle.
The way that these pulsations arise and behave is so closely analogous to the formation of chemical waves that the mixtures devised by Belousov and Zhabotinsky have long been used as models for studying the dynamics of the heart.

 Reactors to Juice Cartons: Soviet Factory Adjusts
Tetra Pak-Luch, as the joint venture is called, is a successful and apparently rare example of the Soviet Union's program to bolster its feeble economy and improve its deficit-riddled consumer market by converting military enterprises to civilian use as Soviet-American relations warm and new arms-control agreements are reached.
Defense Industry Minister Boris M. Belousov said last month that his ministry had significantly cut its military-related production -- for example, rocket launchers, tanks, armored personnel carriers -- and increased its production of, among other consumer goods, washing machines, tape recorders and perfumes.
The vast military industrial complex is said by various informed experts to employ from 5 million to 8 million people in about 5,000 enterprises that occupy two percent of the country's territory and include about a third of all the enterprises in Moscow alone.

In case of the particular system studied by Belousov and Zhabotinski there began a periodic colour change from yellow to colourless.
