Richard Kuhn was born in Vienna on December 3, 1900. His father, Richard Clemens Kuhn, was an engineer and "Hofrat"; his mother, Angelika Rodler, was a teacher in elementary schools. He was educated at the "Gymnasium" (grammar school). He studied chemistry at Vienna University and later at Munich under . He obtained his degree (D.Ph.) in 1922 following his thesis (On the specificity of enzymes). In 1925 Munich University invited him to lecture on chemistry. Kuhn accepted an invitation by the in Zurich, where he held the post of Professor for General and Analytical Chemistry from 1926 until 1929. He then became Principal of the Institute for Chemistry at the newly founded Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut (since 1950, Max Planck Institut) for Medical Research in Heidelberg; in 1937 he also took over the administration of this Institute, in succession to L. von Krehl. Besides these duties he also filled the post of Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Heidelberg. For one year he was at the University of Pennsylvania , Philadelphia, as a Visiting Research Professor for Physiological Chemistry.

Kuhn, Richard (b. Dec. 3, 1900, Vienna, Austria-Hungaryd. Aug. 1, 1967, Heidelberg, W.Ger.), German biochemist who was awarded the 1938 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for work on carotenoids and vitamins. Forbidden by the Nazis to accept the award, he finally received his diploma and gold medal after World War II. Kuhn investigated the structure of compounds related to the carotenoids, the fat-soluble yellow colouring agents widely distributed in nature. He discovered at least eight carotenoids, prepared them in pure form, and determined their constitution. He discovered that one was necessary for the fertilization of certain algae. Simultaneously with Paul Karrer he announced the constitution of vitamin B and was the first to isolate a gram of it. With coworkers he also isolated vitamin B . From 1948 he was an editor of Justus Liebigs Annalen der Chemie ("Justus Liebig's Annals of Chemistry").

Kuhn, Richard Austrian-born German chemist who determined the structures of vitamins A, B2, and B6 in the 1930s, having isolated them from cow's milk. He was awarded the 1938 Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Kuhn was born in Vienna and educated there and at Munich, Germany. In 1929 he became professor at Heidelberg and director of the Kaiser Wilhelm (later Max Planck) Institute for Medical Research. He remained there until the late 1930s, when he was caught in a Nazi roundup of Jews and imprisoned in a concentration camp. He was unable to receive his Nobel prize until the end of World War II in 1945, when he returned to work in Heidelberg. Kuhn's early research concerned the carotenoids, the fat-soluble yellow pigments found in plants which are precursors of vitamin A. In the 1940s, Kuhn continued to carry out research on carbohydrates, studying alkaloid glycosides such as those that occur in tomatoes, potatoes, and other plants of the genus Solanum. In 1952, he returned to experiments with milk, extracting carbohydrates from thousands of litres of milk using chromatography. This work led in the 1960s to the investigation of similar sugar-type substances in the human brain.

His father, Richard Clemens Kuhn, was an engineer and his mother Angelika Rodler was a teacher in elementary schools. He studided chemistry at Vienna University and later at Munich under R. Willstatter. Kuhn investigated theoretical problems of organic chemistry as well as extensive fields in biochemistry. For a period of twenty years Kuhn investigated compounds containing double bonds which proved to be of great interest in connection with the study of the chemical nature of the cartenoids. He discovered eight new types of these and was able to analyze their constitution. He also carried out important work on vitamin B and the antidermatitis vitamin B . For his work in this important field Kuhn was awarded the Nobel Prize In Chemistry in 1938. Richard Kuhn married Daisy Hartmann in 1928 and has two sons and four daughters. Richard Kuhn died in 1967.

Richard Kuhn (1900-1967) Nobel Prize for Chemistry 1938 Richard Willstaetter, the 1915 recipient of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry and the pioneer of the chemistry of natural products, alway8 used to say that his greatest discovery was his doctoral student Richard Kuhn. Richard Kuhn was born at the turn of the century in Vienna and later studied in Munich in Willstaetter's laboratories. His doctoral thesis dealt with enzymes, one of his master's favorite areas of research. He became a senior lecturer in 1925 and professor of general and analytical chemistry at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich one year later. In 1929 he left Zurich to take up a professorship at the University of Heidelberg. At the same time he headed the department of medical chemistry at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Heidelberg. His many tasks did not prevent him from turning his full attention to research. Kuhn was interested both in enzymes and in naturally occurring pigments. In particular, he determined the chemical structure of the carotenes, a family of yellow, orange and red pigments, lycopenes, the red pigment in the tomato, and croceins, the pigment isolated from crocuses. He showed that the color of the pigment is determined by its chemical structure.

A History of the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research Kuhn Guides the Chemistry Department through Troubled Waters during World War II In the years before the war, Kuhn had already begun to turn insights gained from his investigations of the functional mechanisms of B6 and other vitamins and growth factors toward the development of antibacterial agents. By the end of 1941, he presented a research summary and proposal to the KWImF Scientific Advisory Committee, revolving almost entirely around vitamins, vitamin deficiencies and anti-vitamins. He specifically highlighted the importance of establishing a scientific foundation upon which applied medical research might be built. The latter included development of potential prophylactics against various diseases, as well as new or improved anti-bacterial medicines. Although his group concentrated most of their energy on such studies, they also performed important theoretical work on synthetic double-bonded molecules, called cumulenes, and began entirely novel investigations of the involvement of enzymatic reactions in genetics. Kuhn was remarkably successful in keeping his associates at the KWImF focused on this basic research. In the highly productive period between 1933 and 1939, he published an average of thirty-eight papers a year. The group still averaged twenty-four papers a year during the next four years. Eventually, war-time distractions, interruptions, shortages, breaks in communication and governmental mandates took their toll. In 1944, output was reduced to a total of fifteen papers, while only two were published in 1945.
