J. Fraser Stoddart (1942–2024) Nobel laureate for molecular machines—author in Structural Chemistry
摘要
In a 1999 article of Structural Chemistry, the recently deceased J. Fraser Stoddart and two associates surveyed the interplay between the synthesis of functioning supramolecular systems and their X-ray crystallographic investigation. Furthermore, they charted the anticipated development and necessary work for creating “intelligent” materials with predetermined functions. This was part of Stoddart’s discoveries in creating molecular machines that brought him a share of the chemistry Nobel Prize in 2016.
