Biography

Laurence Barron was born in 1944 in Southampton, England, where he attended King Edward VI Grammar School, and then studied chemistry at the Northern Polytechnic, London University. After graduating with first class honours in 1965, he moved to Oxford University to undertake Ph.D. work under the supervision of Professor Peter Atkins on the theory of nonlinear optical activity and birefringence, and polarized light scattering generally. From 1969 to 1975 he carried out postdoctoral work with Professor David Buckingham at Cambridge University, holding a Ramsay Memorial Fellowship 1974-75. He moved to the Chemistry Department of the University of Glasgow in 1975, initially as a Lecturer and finally as the Gardiner Professor (Emeritus from 2008). From 1995 to 2000 he held an EPSRC Senior Fellowship. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society, The Royal Society of Edinburgh, The Institute of Physics and The Royal Society of Chemistry. He was awarded the prestigious Chirality Medal by the Societa Chimica Italiana for 2011.

Research interests

Laurence Barron works on the electric, magnetic and optical properties of molecules. A special interest in chirality brings a wide range of topics into his work, from the physics of elementary particles to the structure and behaviour of the molecules of life. His widely cited book, Molecular Light Scattering and Optical Activity (1), is a unique and essential resource that has contributed to the growing impact of chirality on many areas of modern science.

Vibrational Optical Activity. In 1969 during his Ph.D. work (with P.W. Atkins) in Oxford, he discovered a new circular polarization-dependent scattering mechanism from chiral molecules responsible for the new phenomenon he called Raman optical activity (ROA), and went on to make the first observations (with A.D. Buckingham) in Cambridge in 1972. This was the first observation of vibrational optical activity in individual chiral molecules. Barron’s group in Glasgow subsequently developed ROA into a powerful chiroptical spectroscopy applicable to a vast range of chiral molecular structures, now used in academic and industrial laboratories around the world. Comparison of experimental with ab initio calculated ROA spectra can provide the complete three-dimensional structure and conformational populations of chiral molecules in solution, from small organics to biopolymers, and is a powerful method for determining absolute configuration (including the first for CHFClBr which he achieved in 1997 using ROA). His Glasgow group applied ROA to problems in biomolecular science including protein fold determination, protein misfolding and disease, intrinsically unstructured proteins, protein and carbohydrate structure of intact glycoproteins, and protein and nucleic acid structure of intact viruses. Like cryo-electron microscopy, ROA is especially valuable for the many proteins inaccessible to X-ray and NMR techniques. Ref. 2 reviews this work. His group also pioneered a magnetic version of ROA (analogous to the Faraday effect) which functions, inter alia, as Raman EPR in paramagnetic species originating in spin-flip transitions via antisymmetric scattering (see Ref. 1 for details).

A New Definition of Chirality.In the 1980s he extended Lord Kelvin’s definition of chirality to situations where motion is an essential ingredient (e.g. spinning translating particles), pointing out that the hallmark of genuine chirality is that the two distinguishable mirror-image enantiomers are interconverted by parity P (space inversion) but not by time reversal T (motion reversal) and so exhibit a time-invariant enantiomorphism. This ‘true chirality’ must be distinguished from the ‘false chirality’ of systems such as collinear electric and magnetic fields where the enantiomers are interconverted by both P and T and so exhibit a time-noninvariant enantiomorphism and which support quite different phenomena. This removed the confusion since Pasteur’s time concerning the nature of physical influences able to induce absolute enantioselection, and has been widely adopted in areas ranging from origin of biomolecular homochirality and astrobiology to novel optical and transport properties of chiral media. Introduction of symmetry violations provides analogies between the physics of elementary particles and chiral molecules including the concept that, in the presence of parity violation, the strict enantiomer (exactly degenerate) of a chiral molecule is generated by CP where C is charge conjugation (particle-antiparticle exchange). Ref. 3 reviews this work. 

charge conjugation and parity 

Other Work. Theory of nonlinear optics of chiral molecules, including prediction of intensity-dependent optical rotation and of a linear intensity difference in second harmonic scattering from chiral surfaces. His work on the electric dipole-electric quadrupole contribution to optical activity in oriented chiral systems underpinned the first observation in 1998 by Alagna et al. at ESRF of natural CD in the X-ray region, attributed entirely to this mechanism (see Ref. 1). He developed (with J. Vrbancich) the definitive molecular theory of new ‘magnetochiral’ optical phenomena involving the subtle interplay of chirality and magnetism, subsequently observed in 1997 by G.L.J.A. Rikken at the Grenoble High Magnetic Field Laboratory (see Ref. 1). He also contributes to the development of a new spectroscopy (discovered by his Glasgow colleague M. Kadodwala), based on sculpted fields generated by optical excitation of plasmonic chiral metamaterials, that can detect and structurally characterize biomolecules at the picogram level with potential for ultrasensitive detection and characterization of amyloid diseases and viruses (4).
