Abstract
⺠Debate persists over the role of aesthetic factors in scientific theory choice. ⺠Aesthetics also figures in many other aspects of chemistry. ⺠The beauty of molecules raises special questions for aesthetics. ⺠The maxim 'Form follows function' is relevant to the aesthetics of molecules. ⺠Future applications will require a broader view of aesthetics in chemical biology.
