Prins, H. J. Chem. Weekblad 1919, 16, 1072–1023. Born in Zaandam, The Netherlands, Hendrik J. Prins (1889–1958) was not even an organic chemist per se. After obtaining a doctorate in chemical engineering, Prins worked for an essential oil company and then a company dealing with the rendering of condemned meats and carcasses. But he had a small laboratory near his house where he carried out his experiments in his spare time, which obviously was not a big distraction—for he rose to be the president-director of the firm he worked for.
