Major Events On a trip to Berkeley in the spring, Pauling discovers his theory that uses hydrogen bonds to explain the configurational entropy of ice, which he later publishes in JACS. It has been called "the most important American contribution to the modern crystallography of water." Pauling and E. Bright Wilson, Jr. publish Introduction to Quantum Mechanics, with Applications to Chemistry. It becomes a popular textbook for introducing chemists and physicists to the new field of quantum mechanics. Pauling publishes "The Oxygen Equilibrium of Hemoglobin and Its Structural Interpretation" in which he explains how oxygen molecules are attached to the iron atoms of hemoglobin. He begins his collaboration with Charles D. Coryell on the magnetic properties of hemoglobin. In the spring, Pauling meets Alfred E. Mirsky, a professor in cell biology, at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in New York City. They discuss hemoglobin and proteins, and Mirsky expresses an interest in pursuing their exchange of ideas at CIT. Pauling immediately goes to Simon Flexner, the director of the Rockefeller Institute, and, within a short time, arranges for Mirsky to spend fifteen months in Pasadena. During the summer, Pauling works on the hemocyanin present in the keyhole limpet at CIT’s marine laboratory at Corona del Mar. Mirsky also spends his summer at this laboratory, and he and Pauling begin to collaborate. Pauling and Mirsky write a paper on the structure of native, denatured, and coagulated proteins in which they claim that biologically active protein molecules are held together by hydrogen bonds. They are able to explain, in a general way, how most globular proteins can be unfolded and denatured. In the fall, Verner Schomaker arrives at CIT. He becomes an important collaborator with Pauling on the electron-diffraction work and on many other projects. Chronology by Robert Paradowski.
