It was named for Japanese chemist Kenichi Fukui (1918-1997),who was awarded the 1981 Nobel Prize in chemistry for his frontier theory of chemistry, which showed that the electrons with the weakest bonds to their parent atom are very important to understanding chemical reactions. He shared the prize with Ukrainian-born American chemist Roald Hoffmann.
