摘要

Professor Angelo Gavezzotti’s scientific works have shaped the field of structural chemistry and inspired crystallographers and molecular modellers alike. To honour his legacy in this contribution, the Durham Molecular Crystals and Crystallisation (DuMoC2) group (and friends) have reviewed his work with a touch of humour and enormous gratitude. After presenting a concise review of his scientific contributions to crystallography and molecular modelling, the Gavezzotti Structural Database (GSD) was compiled and compared to the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). We then used Angelo’s PIXEL method to analyse some of the GSD crystal structures. Together, through the writing of this paper, we celebrate Angelo’s career.
