Breslow(Columbia大学)在Houston举行的美国化学会上接受物理有机化学的James Flack Norris奖金时提出了他在物理有机化学上的哲学观点,以下是谈话的摘录。物理有机化学的领域已广为开拓,在许多方面已吸引了很多青年学生投身于中,尽管他们对经典的合成方向兴趣依然不衰——经典的合成方向对许多有机化学的学生确实有着很大的吸引力。虽然道理并不完全清楚,但值得注意的是,物理有机化学家已承担了合成非天然产物的任务。换句话说,就是合成一些新的分子,通过 Breslow (Columbia University) presented his philosophical perspective on physico-organic chemistry in accepting the James Flack Norris prize for physio-organic chemistry at the American Chemical Society in Houston. The following is an excerpt from the conversation. The field of physical organic chemistry has been well established and has attracted many young students in many ways, though their interest in classical synthesis has not deteriorated - the classical synthesis does have a significant impact on many organic chemistry students Appeal. Although the truth is not entirely clear, it is noteworthy that physicochemical organic chemists have assumed the task of synthesizing non-natural products. In other words, it is to synthesize some new molecules and pass it
