		The exploration of Laurent's early career reveals that this French chemist had proposed a hyposthesis to explain phenomena due to valence fifteen years before August Kekulé's Exposition of the classic valence-bond theory in 1858.
		Laurent put forward a hypothesis supposing the dividibility of atoms at a time when such a theory was far removed from the possiblity of experimentation.
		Laurent's hypothesis influenced certain advances in his chemistry, and that of his close associate, Charles Gerhardt, and eventually these advances helped turn most chemists to atomism.

	Molecular Structure
		Dumas was an enthusiastic supporter of Berzelius, but one of Dumas's pupils, Auguste Laurent (1807-1853) managed, in 1836, to substitute chlorine atoms for several of the hydrogen atoms in the molecule of ethyl alcohol.
		Laurent held firm, however, and continued to accumulate evidence to the effect that radicals were not as indestructible and untouchable as Berzelius insisted, and that one must not overemphasize the matter of positive and negative.
		Berzelius's anger barred Laurent from the more famous laboratories, and while Berzelius lived, his version of the radical theory remained in being by the sheer force of his personality.

	Phthalic acids (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Phthalic acid was obtained by French chemist Auguste Laurent in 1836 by oxidizing naphthalene tetrachloride, and, believing the resulting substance to be a naphthalene derivative, he named it naphthalenic acid.
		Swiss chemist Jean Charles Galissard de Marignac determined its formula and showed Laurent’s supposition to be incorrect, upon which Laurent gave it its present name.
		It can be manufactured by oxidizing naphthalene tetrachloride (prepared from naphthalene, potassium, chlorate and hydrochloric acid) with nitric acid, or, better, by oxidizing the hydrocarbon with fuming sulfuric acid, using mercury or mercuric sulphate as a catalyst.

		This and Geison's other evidence on the politics of Laurent and Dumas make it reasonable to suspect that Pasteur's gratuitous deprecation of Laurent was intended to help insinuate himself into Dumas's circle.
		There was no need to attribute Pasteur's failure to acknowledge the guidance he had received from his teacher Auguste Laurent to political opportunism, because Laurent's ideas on the relationship between the crystalline forms of tartaric acid and the transmission of polarized light when they are dissolved in water had proved misleading.

		Ampère pioneered the notions of molecular structure and architecture as goals for chemistry to establish and understand, and as tools for chemists to apply to the unraveling of the laws of chemical combination.
		In so doing, Laurent was experimenting with the notion of a three-dimensional regular solid or polyhedron in order to recapitulate (and abstract) the whole series of metamorphoses a molecule was capable of undergoing.
		This was one of the seeds for the molecular formula as Kekulé would conceive it 20 years later (1858 and step 5).

		In the same year, Liebig moved from Giessen to Munich and, perhaps heeding Wöhler's admonition, divorced himself from the murky theories of organic chemistry.
		The Frenchmen, Auguste Laurent (1808-1853) and Charles Gerhardt (1816-1856), brought about new ways of thinking about organic structures.
		In particular, Gerhardt was able to demonstrate that the formulas used by Liebig should be halved, that organic compounds should be considered as a single entity (unitary theory), and through his theory of residues (the second type theory), formulated the double decomposition reaction.
