    The Société Française de Chimie (1857-2007) as a Place for Thinking Chemistry in France Laurence Lestel* This contribution is related to the adventure of editing a biographic book on 88 French chemists to celebrate the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the French Society of Chemistry (Société Française de Chimie, SFC) in 2007. For its 50th and its 100th anniversaries, the Société published books about its history, including the presentation of the scientific contributions of its first Presidents [Cinquantenaire, Centenaire]. More than two years ago, the idea emerged to pub- lish a reference book on its presidents, which finally came out last January, under the name: Itinéraires de chimistes. 1857-2007. Some members of the Club d’his- toire de la chimie, a thematic group of the Société, developed the project and the SFC accepted to edit the book. After a short history of the beginning of the Société, the content of the book and the difficulties met will be presented. The Société Française de Chimie In 1857, three young chemists, Arnaudon, Collinet and Ubaldini, began to meet once a week to discuss their work and about the chemical papers and books pub- lished in France and abroad. The meeting place was a Parisian cafe, located Cour du Commerce, a passage which started at 130 boulevard Saint-Germain. They were soon joined by young chemists, often foreigners, who worked with Chevreul, Dumas, Sainte-Claire Deville, Berthelot or Balard. They founded a chemical group whose initial statutes were drafted in June 1857 [see Fournier, Fell and Rocke]. The first President, elected in June 30, 1857, was Jacques Arnaudon, a young Italian from Turin, 28 years old, who had been in France since 1855 for training in the laboratory of Chevreul.

Special attention is given to his work in life science which he had done in the second half of his scientific career and was the base of the development of nuclear medicine. Keywords: George de Hevesy; Radionuclides; Nuclear Medicine Introduction George de Hevesy has founded Radioanalytical Chemistry and Nuclear Medicine, discovered the element hafnium and first separated stable isotopes. He was an inventor in many disciplines and his interest was not only focused on the development and refinement of methods, but also on the structure of matter and its changes: atoms, molecules, cells, organs, plants, animals, men and cosmic objects. He was working under complicated political situation in Europe in the 20th century. During his stay in Germany, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, Denmark, and Sweden he wrote a lot papers in German. In 1962 he edited a large part of his articles in a collection where German papers are translated in English [1].

MESDAMES, MESSIEURS, Depuis quelques mois la mort frappe à coups redoublés l'Académie -des sciences. La disparition de chacun de nos collègues nous cause une douloureuse impression, mais celle du professeur Moureu est plus particulièrement pénible. Dans la force de l'âge, en pleine acti- vité scientifique, il travaillait avec infiniment Ide.succès à la création et à la diffusion de la Science Française'; nous attendions encore beaueoup de lui. Maintenant ces espoirs sont vains; nous pouvons 268 CHARLESMOUREU seulement nous souvenir qu'il a été une gloire de notre patrie et nous devons le proclamer bien haut. Né en 1863 dans le département où il est revenu mourir, il se con- sacra de bonne heure à la science. Pharmacien, comme son frè- re aîné pour lequel il àvait une si grande amitié, il ne se dirigea pas vers la pratique du métier, mais orienta bientôt ses efforts vers la recherche scientifique et vers l'enseignement. Son premier travail, qui lui servit de thèse de doctorat, fut une étude sur l'acide acrylique. De là, il passa aux composés acétyléni- ques où il réussit de nouvelles et importantes synthèses. Nommé agrégé, puis professeur à l'École de Pharmacie, il aborda l'étude d'un certain nombre de produits extraits de végétaux: Euge- nol, Safrol, Estragol, Anéthol et Spartéine. Il poursuivit de longues recherches sur ce dernier corps, en détermina la nature exacte, la formule, la constitution moléculaire et en découvrit un nouvel iso- mère.

  • Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. Cyril Norman Hinshelwood
    Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. Cyril Norman Hinshelwood Name: Cyril Norman Hinshelwood Lebensdaten: 19. Juni 1897 ‐ 9. Oktober 1967 Cyril Norman Hinshelwood war ein britischer Chemiker. Er untersuchte Aspekte der chemischen Reaktionskinetik. Nach ihm ist der Langmuir‐Hinshelwood‐Mechanismus benannt. Er beschreibt die Reaktion zweier Ausgangsstoffe an einer Katalysator‐Oberfläche. Für seine Forschungen über die Mechanismen chemischer Reaktion wurde Hinshelwood 1956 mit dem Nobelpreis für Chemie ausgezeichnet. Akademischer und beruflicher Werdegang Cyril Norman Hinshelwood war sehr begabt und bekam ein Stipendium für die University of Oxford zugesprochen. Wegen des Ersten Weltkriegs konnte er dies jedoch nicht in Anspruch nehmen. Stattdessen war er in dieser Zeit als Chemiker in einer Sprengstofffabrik in Queensferry, Schottland tätig. 1919 ging er ans Balliol College in Oxford, wo er einen durch die Nachkriegszeit verkürzten Kurs in Chemie besuchen durfte. Seine Auffassungsgabe der chemischen Prinzipien war so herausragend, dass er erneut für ein Stipendium vorgeschlagen wurde. In Oxford erlangte Hinshelwood den Bachelor‐ und Master‐Grad. Von 1921 bis 1937 arbeitete er am Trinity College in Oxford als Tutor. 1937 erhielt er eine Professur für Chemie an der Universität Oxford. Auch während des Zweiten Weltkriegs war er für die Kriegsproduktion tätig, so unter anderem bei der Herstellung von Gasmasken und Penicillin. Nobelpreis für Chemie 1956 Die chemische Kinetik, die Geschwindigkeit und Mechanismus einer chemischen Reaktion untersucht, war zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts noch wenig erforscht. Hinshelwood hatte großes Interesse an den Mechanismen derartiger chemischer Prozesse. Es wurde während des Ersten Weltkriegs noch verstärkt, als er in einer Munitionsfabrik beschäftigt war, wo er sich mit der Chemie von explosiven Stoffen beschäftigte.
