Luis E. Miramontes
Luis Ernesto Miramontes Cárdenas (1925 - 2004), inventeur du premier contraceptif oral, est un chimiste mexicain né à Tepic, Nayarit le 16 mars 1925 et décédé à Mexico le 13 septembre 2004.
Le 15 octobre 1951, lorsque Miramontes était âgé seulement de 26 ans, il a synthétisé la Noréthistérone, qui est le composé actif principal de la pillule contraceptive. Miramontes a reçu le brevet du composé avec Carl Djerassi et Jorge Rosenkranz, de la compagnie mexicaine de chimie Syntex S.A.
Luis E. Miramontes, avec Andrés Manuel del Río (découvreur du vanadium) et Mario J. Molina (Prix Nobel de chimie en 1995), sont les trois chimistes mexicains les plus reconnus.
