一八七六年的诺贝尔化学奖已经授予纯无机化学的研究,特别是硼烷的领域。我非常高兴并表示深切的感谢。我在这个领域中的方向,如同我的全部研究工作一样,是分子的化学行为与它的三维空间结构和电子结构之间的相互关系。用X-射线衍射的方法对硼烷分子结构的早期研究工作,给化学键的理论——区别于由原来的碳化学的典型理论而发展起来的化学键理论——奠定了一个可靠的基础,并对这类化合物多面体的性质,提供了一个满意的理解。这个原理被合成化学家采用,并帮助建立了一大片迄今还陌生的硼烷化学领域。由此证实了在周期表中位于与碳邻近的那个硼原子确实具有复杂的化学。
The 1876 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to purely inorganic chemistry, especially in the field of boranes. I am very happy and express my deep gratitude. My direction in this area, like all my research, is the interrelationship between a molecule’s chemical behavior and its three-dimensional spatial and electronic structure. The early work on the molecular structure of boranes by X-ray diffraction laid a solid foundation for the theory of chemical bonds, as distinguished from the chemical bond theory developed from the classical theory of carbon chemistry. The polyhedron nature of such compounds provides a satisfactory understanding. This principle was adopted by synthetic chemists and helped establish a large area of borane chemistry so far unfamiliar. This confirmed that the boron atom located adjacent to the carbon in the periodic table does indeed have complex chemistry.
