Donat Andreevich Cherepanov (1886; disappeared March 1920) was a Russian revolutionary. He joined the Socialist-Revolutionaries around the time of the Russian revolutions of 1917, and emerged as a leading dissident in the Left-Socialist Revolutionary movement the following year. He is believed to have died in captivity after being arrested in 1920.

Donat Andreevich Cherepanov was the son of an unsuccessful Moscow entrepreneur. According an account by his former 3rd Moscow Gymnasium classmate V.F. Khodasevich, Cherepanov did not appear to be involved in politics as of late 1916. He became politically active in 1917, joining the Socialist Revolutionary Party, and later the same year siding with the Left Socialist-Revolutionaries in the party split. He gained some fame as a Left SR leader, along with such figures as Spiridonova and Kamkov.^[1]

Cherepanov became a member of the Central Committee of the Party of Left Socialist-Revolutionaries. He took a direct part in the uprising of July 1918. After the failure of the attempted insurrection, he went undergroun and became the leader of the so-called 'left-wing of Left SRs' who advocated an irreconcilable terrorist struggle against the Bolsheviks. The underground nickname was 'Shard'. He established contacts with a group of underground anarchists led by Kazimir Kovalevich, and together they organized an explosion in Leontyevsky Lane on September 25, 1919.^[1] Vladimir Zagorsky and 11 others were killed in this attack.^[2] Cherepanov was expelled from PLSR(i) in September 1919.^[3]

Cherepanov was arrested by the MCHK on February 20, 1920. Cherepanov was personally interrogated by the leaders of the Cheka, Dzerzhinsky and Ksenofontov.^[4] Cherepanov was thought to have been executed shortly after his capture, but it is possible he died of typhus^[1]

• During the October 1918 Fourth All-Russian Congress of the Party of Left Socialist-Revolutionaries (internationalists) Cherepanov was one of the participants who voiced critiques against the actions of the PLSR(i) Central Committee, arguing that the party should abandon armed struggle against the Bolsheviks and seek legalization of the party.^[5][6]

• Grigory Ostrin [ru] portrayed Cherepanov in the 1968 film The Sixth of July.^[7].^[7][1]
