Excerpt: Hermann Emil Fischer (9 October 1852 15 July 1919) was a German chemist and recipient of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1902. He is known for discovering the Fischer esterification. Fischer was born in Euskirchen, near Cologne, the son of a businessman. After graduating he wished to study natural sciences, but his father compelled him to work in the family business until determining that his son was unsuitable. Fischer then attended the University of Bonn in 1872, but switched to the University of Strasbourg in 1872. He earned his doctorate in 1874 with his study of phthalein and was appointed to a position at the university. In 1875 von Baeyer was asked to succeed Liebig at the University of Munich and Fischer went there with him to become an assistant in organic chemistry. In 1878 Fischer qualified as a Privatdozent at Munich, where he was appointed Associate Professor of Analytical Chemistry in 1879. In the same year he was offered, but refused, the Chair of Chemistry at Aachen. In 1881 he was appointed Professor of Chemistry at the University of Erlangen and in 1883 he was asked by the Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik to direct its scientific laboratory. Fischer, however, whose father had now made him financially independent, preferred academic work. In 1885 he was asked to become Professor of Chemistry at the University of Würzburg and here he remained until 1892, when he was asked to succeed A. W. Hofmann in the Chair of Chemistry at the University of Berlin. Here he remained until his death in 1919.

Excerpt: Amalie Emmy Noether, German pronunciation: , (23 March 1882 14 April 1935) was a German-born mathematician known for her groundbreaking contributions to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. Described by David Hilbert, Albert Einstein and others as the most important woman in the history of mathematics, she revolutionized the theories of rings, fields, and algebras. In physics, Noether's theorem explains the fundamental connection between symmetry and conservation laws. She was born to a Jewish family in the Bavarian town of Erlangen; her father was the mathematician Max Noether. Emmy originally planned to teach French and English after passing the required examinations, but instead studied mathematic...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=149896 ... Read more

Excerpt: Carbohydrate chemistry is a subdiscipline of chemistry primarily concerned with the synthesis, structure, and function of carbohydrate structures. Due to the general structure of carbohydrates, their synthesis is often preoccupied with the selective formation of glycosidic linkages and the selective reaction of hydroxyl groups. As a result, this chemistry relies heavily on the use of protecting groups. Individual saccharide residues are termed monosaccharides. Carbohydrates are reactants in many organic reactions.

Excerpt:Adolf Butenandt Adolf Friedrich Johann Butenandt (24 March 1903 18 January 1995) was a German biochemist and member of the Nazi party . He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1939 for his "work on sex hormones ." He initially rejected the award in accordance with government policy, but accepted it in 1949 after World War II . Biography Born in Lehe, near Bremerhaven , he started his studies at the University of Marburg . For his Ph.D he joined the working group of the Nobel laureate Adolf Windaus at the University of Göttingen and he finished his studies with a Ph.D. in chemistry in 1927. Estrone Adolf Windaus and Walter Schöller of Schering gave him the advice to work on hormones extraced from ovaries . This research lead to the discovery of estrone and other primary female sex hormones , which were extracted from several thousand liters of urine . For this research he won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1939 together with Leopold Ru i ka who was involved in the synthesis of several newly discovered steroids. After his Habilitation he became lecturer in Göttingen 1931. He was professor at the Technical University of Danzig 1933, and after a visit in the US, he became director of the Kaiser Wilhe... ...
