Studies of Chiral Centers Other Than Carbon. William Jackson Pope and Kurt Mislow: Pioneers of Stereochemistry
摘要
William Jackson PopePope, William Jackson and Kurt MislowMislow, Kurt were pioneers in stereochemistry contributing to the most fundamental concepts and terminology in the field. Their ground-breaking research activities were separated, for the most part, by over a half century. Contemporary instrumentation and techniques limited Pope’s studies to static stereochemistryStatic stereochemistry while Mislow’s studies focused significantly on stereochemical dynamicsStereochemical dynamics. In common were their research on chiral centers other than carbon.
