Alexander Williamson

    Alexander Williamson bol britský chemik, ktorý sa preslávil predovšetkým svojou prácou na Williamsonovej éterovej syntéze. Skúmal vzťah medzi éterom a alkoholom, považoval ich za analógy vody a zaviedol koncept vodného typu na klasifikáciu chemických zlúčenín. Jeho myšlienky o výmene atómov v molekulách predznamenali modernú teóriu iónovej disociácie. Williamsonov vplyv presiahol chémiu, keďže v Londýne vyučoval budúcich japonských štátnikov, ktorí prispeli k modernizácii Japonska.
