Origin: French chemist..
Place of birth: Strasbourg.
Education: He studied chemistry at the University of Berlin between 1895 and 1899, obtaining his doctorate this year.
Teaching: Professor at the Sorbonne University.
Investigation: He obtained the propyl alcohol.
In 1877, Friedel and Crafts first described the reaction of benzene with a haloalkane in the presence of a Lewis acid. This reaction results in the alkylation of benzene and is known as the Friedl-Crafts alkylation. Nobel Prize:

Origin: German chemist.Place of birth: Königshütte (now Chorzów, Poland).
Education: Studied at the University of Kiel. Under the supervision of the German chemist Otto Diels, his boss and instructor in Kiel.
Teaching: Alder worked as a professor of chemistry at the universities of Kiel and Cologne.
Research: Alder specialized in diene synthesis (later known as the Diels-Alder reaction) which mainly consists of the analysis and formation of complex organic compounds. Already in 1928 both were co-authors of an essay on this process.
Nobel Prize: In 1950 he received the Nobel Prize together with Diels
