THE FUZZY BOUNDARY: SCIENCE AND ART Return to Interviews Roald Hoffmann was born on July 18, 1937 in Zloczow, Poland. He survived the Nazi occupation of Poland that began in 1941, and he eventually emigrated to the U.S. in 1949. After settling in New York he attended Columbia College, graduated in 1958, and went on to earn a Ph.D. in chemical physics from Harvard in 1962. Hoffmann has won many prestigious awards over the course of his career including the Arthur C. Cope Award of the American Chemical Society, the National Medal of Science, and the 1981 Nobel Prize for chemistry. He is also an accomplished writer, having published several books of poetry. Roald Hoffmann continues to share his insights and wisdom through his writing and Professorship at Cornell. Roald Hoffmann: EMC: RH: EMC: RH: No, not really. I was an immigrant to be sure, and by virtue of that forced to learn ever new languages, to be an outsider, a watcher. But this was also consistent with being an only child for 17 years. Not a lonely child, but one who learned to be alone. EMC: When did you realize that you had a gift for chemistry?

Dopo Dudley Herschbach , Piergiorgio Odifreddi intervista ora un altro chimico, Roald Hoffmann, premio Nobel 1981. Piergiorgio Odifreddi Collabora con il quotidiano "La Repubblica" e ha vinto nel 1998 il Premio Galileo assegnatogli dall'Unione matematica italiana per la sua attività di divulgazione. Intervista a Roald Hoffmann Cominciamo dal suo nome: come mai si chiama Roald? E' una storia di geopolitica, quasi. Sono nato nella Polonia sudorientale, in una famiglia ebrea in cui per tradizione i bambini ricevevano due nomi: uno liturgico e l'altro secolare (che tra l'altro dovevano assomigliarsi). Roald Hoffman Oggi dimentichiamo che le esplorazioni polari hanno avuto un grande fascino. Comunque, io ho disperatamente cercato una connessione romantica tra Amundsen e mia madre -se questo che intende- ma non ne ho trovate! Lui era morto una decina d'anni prima della mia nascita, cercando di salvare Umberto Nobile, che era precipitato nell'Artico con un dirigibile. E, in ogni caso, non gli piacevano le donne. Tornando al suo nome, come mai si chiama Hoffmann?

Theatrum Chemicum Personae: Roald Hoffmann Roald Hoffmann n. 1937 Premio Nobel per la chimica 1981 con Kenichi Fukui Premio Nobel 1980 Premio Nobel 1982 Estratto dal volume di Luigi Cerruti, Bella e potente. La chimica del Novecento fra scienza e società , Editori Riuniti, 2003 "Nell'elenco dei fronti di avanzamento della chimica organica avevamo messo al primo posto lo sviluppo di concezioni nuove e potenti dei problemi della sintesi. È qui che si colloca il contributo teorico più importante di Woodward , noto come regola di Woorward-Hoffmann. Dal nome stesso è chiaro che questa 'regola' nacque dalla collaborazione del grande chimico organico con un altro ricercatore. Al momento dell'incontro che doveva portarlo al premio Nobel Roald Hoffmann aveva 27 anni, e aveva dietro di sé una biografia esemplare della tragedia europea da cui era scampato a stento. Lui stesso ne raccontò i tratti salienti al momento del conferimento del Nobel. fellow di Harvard approfondì l'interesse verso "la teoria applicata, in particolare alla chimica organica". Interesse che si comprende bene, dato che Elias Corey gli "insegnò cosa vi era di eccitante nella chimica organica". Arrivò quindi la primavera del 1964, e "Woodward [gli] pose alcuni problemi su quelle che successivamente furono chiamate reazioni elettrocicliche". Iniziò cosi la collaborazione fra il giovane teorico e il celebre chimico organico.

The Scientist 3[24]:13, Dec. 11, 1989 OPINION Nobelist Roald Hoffmann: Chemist, Poet, Above All Teacher By Born in Poland in 1937 to “a happy Jewish family in dark days in Europe,” Hoffmann emigrated to the United States with his mother and stepfather in 1949 after spending two years in a labor camp and another year in hiding in the attic of a schoolhouse near his hometown of Zloczow. After completing his elementary education in New York City, he went on to Stuyvesant High School, one of the city’s selective science schools. He received his B.A. in chemistry from Columbia University in 1958 and from there went on to Harvard to earn his doctorate in chemical physics four years later. Hoffmann was only 28 when he made a name for himself with the Woodward-Hoffmann rules, a set of guidelines for determining whether and how thermal and photochemical reactions occur, and his use of molecular theory to predict chemical actuality is recognized as one of this century’s great contributions to his field. In the following interview with contributing editor Julia King, Hoff mann talks about his multifaceted career as a theorist, scientist, teacher, and poet, and shares his thoughts on the current state of science literacy and education. He also offers readers an idea of what they might expect next from a scientist who has spent a lifetime reflecting about the relation between science and human values, and the behavior of molecules and people.]
