Arndt, F.; Eistert, B. Ber. Dtsch. Chem. Ges. 1935, 68, 200. Fritz Arndt (1885–1969) was born in Hamburg, Germany. He discovered the Arndt-Eistert homologation at the University of Breslau where he extensively investigated the synthesis of diazomethane and its reactions with aldehydes, ketones, and acid chlorides. Fritz Arndt’s chain-smoking of cigars ensured that his presence in the laboratories was always well advertised. Bernd Eistert (1902–1978), born in Ohlau, Silesia, was Arndt’s Ph.D. student. Eistert later joined I. G. Farbenindustrie, which became BASF after the Allies broke the conglomerate up after WWII.
