If it's true that he introduced the concept of Vitamin C megadosage to Linus Pauling, then he's notable on the grounds of his role in that highly controversial movement, rather than the usual  criteria (besides, it seems he was a research chemist for a company, not an academic).  doesn't apply because of the amount of criticism generated against that movement in mainstream sources. Megavitamin therapy, if accurate, suggests not that he was the originator of Vit. C megadosage (that happened in the 30s and 40s) but that he made a historical contribution to that field. And a contribution to a notable field ''does'' confer notability, regardless of how pseudoscientific that field is now regarded
