Sir James Fraser Stoddart FRS FRSE HonFRSC^[1] (born 24 May 1942^[5]) is a British-American chemist who is Chair Professor in Chemistry at the University of Hong Kong.^[8] He has also been Board of Trustees Professor of Chemistry and head of the Stoddart Mechanostereochemistry Group in the Department of Chemistry at Northwestern University in the United States.^[9] He works in the area of supramolecular chemistry and nanotechnology. Stoddart has developed highly efficient syntheses of mechanically-interlocked molecular architectures such as molecular Borromean rings, catenanes and rotaxanes utilising molecular recognition and molecular self-assembly processes. He has demonstrated that these topologies can be employed as molecular switches.^[10] His group has even applied these structures in the fabrication of nanoelectronic devices and nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS).^[11] His efforts have been recognized by numerous awards, including the 2007 King Faisal International Prize in Science.^[12]^[13]^[14] He shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry together with Ben Feringa and Jean-Pierre Sauvage in 2016 for the design and synthesis of molecular machines.^[2]^[15]^[16]^[17]^[18]
