CitationRule, Harold Gordon (Edinburgh). Ph.D. (Munich), D.Sc. (Edinburgh). Lecturer in Organic Chemistry, University of Edinburgh. Distinguished for researches on organic chemistry and on optical rotatory power. Author of about 50 papers in the Journal of the Chemical Society and elsewhere. His chief publications deal with the relationship between the polarity of a substituent group and its influence on the rotatory power of an optically - active molecule, and with the dependence of optical rotation upon the concentration and temperature of the active compound in solution and upon the dipole moment and refractive index of the solvent. His researches in pure organic chemistry include work on derivatives of naphthalene, benzanthrone and anthanthrone.
