I - II, 1897.〕 He discovered Schiff bases and other imines, and was responsible for research into aldehydes; leading to his development of the Schiff test. He also worked in the field of amino acids and the Biuret reagent. Born in Frankfurt am Main, Schiff was a student of Friedrich Wöhler in Göttingen. He completed his dissertation (''Über einige Naphthyl- und Phenylderivate'') also supervised by Wöhler in 1857. In the same year, due to political turmoil, Schiff left Germany in 1857 for Switzerland and the University of Bern.〔''Hugo (Ugo) Schiff, Schiff Bases, and a Century of b-Lactam Synthesis'' Thomas T. Tidwell Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 2–7 PMID 18022986〕 He was a supporter of socialism and reportedly corresponded with Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. He also was a cofounder of the socialist Italian newspaper ''L'Avanti'' in 1894. Schiff moved to Italy in 1863 holding positions in Pisa and then Florence (Museo di Storia Naturale). In 1870 he cofounded the Gazzetta Chimica Italiana together with Stanislao Cannizzaro. In 1877 he became Professor of General Chemistry in Turin and returned to Florence in 1879 as Professor of General Chemistry at what later would become the University of Florence where he founded the ''Chemical Institute of the University of Florence''. Schiff died in Florence. In the University of Florence, the ''Hugo Schiff International Store House'' still exists today. ==References== * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hugo Schiff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
