The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal was begun in 1804 and not completed until 1829 because of construction problems. Benjamin Wright, Joseph Totten, Simone Bernard, and Canvas White were called in to consult on the canal. This brings together the leading civilian canal engineers with the military fortification engineers.

In 1834, codeine was isolated from opium by Pierre Jean Robiquet (1780-1840). One year later, Pierre-Joseph Pelletier (1788-1842) and M. Thiboumery discovered thebaine (named after the ancient Egyptian city of Thebes). In 1848, at the University of Giessen, papaverine was extracted from poppy waste by Georg Merck (1825-1873), the son of Heinrich Emanuel Merck. In 1870, Augustus Matthiessen (1831-1870) and Charles R. A. Wright (1844-1894) recognised that codeine is the monomethyl ether of morphine. After the selective methylation of morphine for the preparation of codeine had failed, Felix Hoffmann (1868-1946) tried out in 1897 a selective acetylation, in analogy to the synthesis of aspirin from salicylic acid.
