Liebig, J. Ann. 1838, 27. Justus von Liebig (1803–1873) pursued his Ph.D. in organic chemistry in Paris under the tutelage of Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778–1850). He was appointed the Chair of Chemistry at Giessen University, which incited a furious jealousy amongst several of the professors already working there because he was so young. Fortunately, time would prove the choice was a wise one for the department. Liebig would soon transform Giessen from a sleepy university to the Mecca of organic chemistry in Europe. Liebig is now considered the father of organic chemistry. Many classic name reactions were published in the journal that still bears his name, Justus Liebigs Annalen der Chemie.
