Maximilian Nierenstein (also known as Moses Max Nierenstein, born in 1877 - died in 1946) was a professor of biochemistry at the University of Bristol.
He is known for the Nierenstein reaction, an organic reaction describing the conversion of an acid chloride into an haloketone with diazomethane.
He also studied natural phenols and tannins.[1] He prepared ellagic acid from algarobilla and certain other fruits. He suggested its formation from galloyl-glycine by Penicillium in 1915.[2] Tannase is an enzyme that Niederstein used to produce m-digallic acid from gallotannins.[3]
