He was awarded the [[Nobel Prize in Chemistry]] in 1939 for his "work on [[sex hormones]]." He was initially forced by the Nazi government to decline the award, but accepted it in 1949 after [[World War II]]. <ref>[http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/nobelprize_facts.html NobelPrize.org]</ref>

Born in Lehe, near [[Bremen]], he started his studies at the [[University of Marburg]].


ACU Arad plays its home matches at [[Stadionul Motorul|Motorul]] [[Stadium]], [[Arad]], which has a capacity of 5.000 seats.
For his [[Ph.D]] he joined the working group of the Nobel laureate [[Adolf Windaus]] at the [[University of Göttingen]] and he finished his studies with a [[Ph.D.]] in chemistry in 1927.

Adolf Windaus and Walter Schöller of [[Schering]] gave him the advice to work on hormones extraced from [[ovaries]]. This research lead to the discovery of [[estrone]] and other primary female [[sex]] [[hormone]]s, which were extracted from several thousand liters of [[urine]].<ref>{{cite journal

For this research he won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1939 together with [[Lavoslav Ružička]] who was involved in the synthesis of several newly discovered steroids.


Their best performance - 13th place at the end of the 2003-2004 season, in the [[Liga a II-a|Romanian Second League]], and reaching the sixteenths phase in the [[Cupa României|Romanian Cup]] in the 2003-2004 and 2007-2008 seasons.

Butenandt joined the [[Nazi Party]] on [[May 1]], [[1936]] (party member No. 3716562). As head of a leading institute he had to apply for money from the government, which was concentrated on the research which was labeled ''kriegswichtig'' (important for the war). So some of his research areas had a connection to military projects, like the improvement of oxygen uptake for high-flying bomber pilots. This involvement with the Nazi regime and the research themes led to criticism after the war and even after his death the discussion about his political orientation during the Nazi time is still not fully resolved.<ref>{{cite journal

In 1956, when the institute relocated to [[Martinsried]], a suburb of [[Munich]], Butenandt became a professor at the [[Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich|University of Munich]]. He also served as president of the [[Max Planck Society|Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science]] following [[Otto Hahn]] from 1960 to 1972.
