Heinrich Friedrich Richard Stoermer (born April 15, 1870 in Breslau , † May 27, 1940 in Rostock ) was a German chemist .

Life

Richard Stoermer was the son of the pharmacist Eugen Stoermer (1840–1910) and his wife Luise Stoermer (1843–1920), née Scheel.

Stoermer visited in Wroclaw the Mary Magdalene School to Graduate in 1888 and then studied until 1893 Chemistry at the University of Breslau , Munich , Leipzig and Rostock . In 1894 he was promoted to Dr. phil. doctorate and habilitation in chemistry in 1897 . He then worked as a private lecturer in chemistry and in 1899 became an associate professor for analytical chemistry. In 1900 his professorship was expanded to include forensic chemistry and in 1916 to organic chemistry. In 1919 Stoermer became a full honorary professor of chemistry. From 1922 to 1935 he worked in the philosophical faculty as a full professor of organic chemistry. From 1916 to 1935 Stoermer was director of the organic department of the chemical institute and from 1928 to 1929 dean of the philosophical faculty of the University of Rostock. Richard Stoermer was most recently active in teaching at the University of Rostock from 1935 to 1938.

Richard Stoermer studied the effects of ultraviolet light on organic compounds, the chemistry of coumarone , the stereochemistry of unsaturated compounds and the chemistry of truxillic and truxic acids.

He was a member of the German Chemical Society , the Society of German Natural Scientists and Doctors and the Natural Research Society of Rostock.

Richard Stoermer was admitted to the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina on September 29, 1922 ( matriculation no. 3480 ) .
