  The Brusselator has been used as a prototype model for autocatalytic
reactions, and in particular for the Belouzov- Zhabotinsky reaction. When
coupled at the diffusive limit, the Brusselator undergoes a Turing bifurcation
resulting in the formation of classical Turing patterns, such as spots, stripes
and spirals in 2 spatial dimensions. In the present study we use generic
nonlocally coupled Brusselators and show that in the limit of the coupling
range R->1 (diffusive limit), the classical Turing patterns are recovered,
while for intermediate coupling ranges and appropriate parameter values chimera
states are produced. This study demonstrates how the parameters of a typical
nonlinear oscillator can be tuned so that the coupled system passes from
spatially stable Turing structures to dynamical spatiotemporal chimera states.
