Louis-Bernard Guyton, Baron de Morveau (also Louis-Bernard Guyton-Morveau after the French Revolution; 4 January 1737–2 January 1816) was a French chemist and politician. He is credited with producing the first systematic method of chemical nomenclature. ==Early career== Guyton de Morveau was born in Dijon, where he served as a lawyer, then ''avocat général'', of the Dijon ''parlement''. In 1773, already interested in chemistry, he proposed use of "muriatic acid gas" for fumigation of buildings and as a result is sometimes given credit for having suggested chlorine in this use. However, chlorine was not well characterized at that time, and hydrogen chloride (made by reacting sodium chloride and sulfuric acid) was actually the active gaseous fumigation agent. In 1782 he resigned this post to dedicate himself to chemistry, collaborating on the ''Encyclopédie Méthodique'' and working for industrial applications. He performed various useful services in this role, and founded ''La Société des Mines et Verreries'' in Saint-Bérain-sur-Dheune. He developed the first system of chemical nomenclature. In 1783, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louis-Bernard Guyton de Morveau」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
