1960年的化学研究工作成果中,最引人注意的恐怕要算是叶绿素a的全合成了。分别在德国和美国,各按互不相同的路线,几乎是同时完成了它的全合成。因为差不多整个生命界都是依賴于叶绿素,所以它的全合成成功,意义也就特别大了。首先,它加强了叶绿素化学及其中間物化学的基础;再者,它使对植物生命过程的了解,向前迈进了一大步;另外,在这个合成过程中,創造了一些新的有机化学技术,这也将促使有机 Among the achievements of the 1960 chemical research work, the most noticeable one is probably the total synthesis of chlorophyll a. In Germany and the United States, on separate lines, their total synthesis was completed almost simultaneously. Because almost all of life is dependent on chlorophyll, its total synthesis success is particularly significant. First, it strengthens the foundation of chlorophyll chemistry and its intermediate chemistry; moreover, it makes a big leap forward in understanding plant life processes; in addition, a number of new organic chemistries have been created during this synthesis Technology, which will also promote organic
