Walter Weizel "Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg". He received his doctorate in physical chemistry at Heidelberg, under Max Trautz. He switched form chemistry to physics to work on the quantum mechanics of molecules as a fellow of the "Notgemeinschaft der Deutschen Wissenschaft" (NG; Emergency Association of German Science) at the "Universität Rostock". He completed his Habilitation in 1929. After Habilitation, Weizel worked briefly at "Badische Anilin- und Sodafabrik" (BASF, Baden Aniline and Soda Factory) at Ludwigshafen. Then, during 1931, he had a Rockefeller fellowship to the University of Chicago. From late in 1931, Weizel was an "ordentlicher Professor" (ordinarius professor) of theoretical physics at the
Clayton Aniline Company Clayton Aniline Company The Clayton Aniline Company Ltd. was an English manufacturer of dyestuffs, founded in 1876 by Charles Dreyfus in Clayton, Manchester. Charles Dreyfus was a French emigrant chemist and entrepreneur, who founded the Clayton Aniline Company on 29 May 1876. The company obtained a lease on a parcel of land in Clayton, Manchester, sandwiched between the Manchester and Ashton Canal and Chatham Street (later known as Clipstone Street). With an initial share capital of £40,000 the company began production of aniline and aniline salt. In 1894, a brilliant young organic chemist Arthur George Green joined the company. Green
