Fischer studies

Fischer studied carbohydrates for many years and performed numerous experiments. Overall, several subsets of these experiments can be used to establish the structure of glucose. Although the ones described here are not the exact ones that he used in the structure proof that he published, they serve to illustrate his reasoning and are somewhat simpler to follow. [Pg.1105]

Some important similarities to crazes II have also been described by Pakula and Fischer studied instability phenomena associated with self-oscillations... [Pg.254]

While at Erlangen, Fischer studied the active principles of tea, coffee, and cocoa (caffeine and theobromine) and eventually synthesized them. Between 1882 and 1906, his work on purines and sugars gained... [Pg.109]

When Fischer studied the sugar, he called it glucose, and chemists have called it glucose ever since, although dextrose is often found on food labels. [Pg.934]

Both the hindered rotation around the amide bond and the thermal cis-trans isomerization of azobenzene residues are characterized by high energy barriers in the neighborhood of 20 kcal/ mole. Some years ago, Malkin and Fischer studied the photochemical isomerization of azobenzene and found that the quantum yield is temperature-dependent they interpreted their data as reflecting an energy barrier of 2-3 kcal/mole between the excited cis and trans species. A comparison of the quantum yields for the photoisomerization of azobenzene residues in the backbone of polymer chains and in low molecular weight analogs should, therefore, indicate whether conformational transitions characterized by low activation... [Pg.178]

Andr Dumas first used the term glucose in 1838 to refer to the sweet compound that comes from honey and grapes. Later, Kekule (Section 8.1) decided that it should be called dextrose because it was dextrorotatory. When Fischer studied the sugar, he called it glucose, and chemists have called it glucose ever since, although dextrose is often found on food labels. [Pg.1029]

Unlike Brydon, Fischer studied polybutadienes containing varying levels of vinyl-1,2 content, and noted graft yield varied accordingly, regardless of the initiation mode. Hence, in Scheme 2, the rate constants must be... [Pg.1209]

Fischer, Emil Hermann (1852-1919) German organic chemist. Fischer studied many compounds of biological interest. He is sometimes referred to as the father of biochemistry. In 1874 he discovered phenylhydrazine. He studied peptides, purines and sugars very thoroughly. His work on purines (a name he coined) led to the synthesis of many compounds such as caffeine and purine. In his early work he put forward incorrect structures but by 1897 he and his colleagues had established the correct structures. Fischer was awarded the 1902 Nobel Prize for chemistry for his work on purines and sugars. [Pg.90]
