‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE DE LA THESE D'AGREGATION (section des sciences accessoires) PRESENTEE PAR A. WURTZ A LA FACULTE DE MEDECINE DE PARIS ---- RARE ---- BON EXEMPLAIRE ---- "In 1844 WURTZ moved to Paris where he soon joined Dumas at the laboratory associated with the Faculty of medicine. It was there that WURTZ succeeded Dumas as lecturer in organic chemistry, as professor and as dean. He became the most enthousiastic and outstanding teachers of his generation. WURTZ excelled as a practical chemist and almost all his contributions were of lasting value. Among his many miscellaneous methods of synthesis were those for the production of phosphorous oxychloride, of neurine from ethylene oxide, of aldol from acetaldehyde, of phenol from benzene, and of esters from alkyl halides and the silver salts of acids".
