From 1831 until 1836, he taught at the Polytechnic School at Kassel. In the spring of 1836, Wöhler became Friedrich Stromeyer's successor as an Ordinary Professor of Chemistry at the University of Göttingen, where he occupied the chair of chemistry for 46 years, until his death in 1882.
Friedrich Wöhler (born July 31, 1800, Eschersheim, near Frankfurt am Main [Germany]—died Sept. 23, 1882, Göttingen, Ger.) was a German chemist who was one of the finest and most prolific of the 19th century.
Friedrich Wöhler war ein deutscher Chemiker. Er ist unter anderem bekannt durch die Harnstoffsynthese, welche ihm 1828 gelungen war.
Friedrich Wöhler (German: ; 31 July 1800 – 23 September 1882) was a German chemist, best known for his synthesis of urea, but also the first to isolate several chemical elements. Contents 1 Biography
Friedrich Wöhler (31. červenec 1800 Eschersheim u Frankfurtu – 23. září 1882 Göttingen) byl německý chemik, známý hlavně svou syntézou močoviny.
Friedrich Wöhler (* 31. júl 1800, Eschersheim, Nemecko – † 23. september 1882, Göttingen) bol významný nemecký chemik, známy hlavne svojou syntézou močoviny.
Friedrich Wöhler was a renowned German chemist who is best known the synthesis of urea, an organic compound, from ammonium cyanate, an inorganic salt, thus disproving the theory of ‘vitalism’, that organic substances can only be produced from living things.
The Wöhler synthesis is the conversion of ammonium cyanate into urea. This chemical reaction was described in 1828 by Friedrich Wöhler. It is often cited as the starting point of modern organic chemistry. Although the Wöhler reaction concerns the conversion of ammonium cyanate, this salt appears only as an
Friedrich Wöhler (Eschersheim, ma Frankfurt am Main része, 1800. július 31. – Göttingen, 1882. szeptember 23.) német kémikus.
In the first half of the 19th century, Germany was a leading force in chemistry, thanks in large part to the work of Justus von Liebig and Friedrich Wöhler. They conducted pioneering research in organic chemistry, as well as other fields, and created model teaching laboratories that became imitated around the world.
