Cläre Hunsdiecker (née Dieckmann) (1903–1995) was a German chemist who worked with her husband Heinz Hunsdiecker (1904–1981) to improve a reaction of Alexander Borodin now known as the Hunsdiecker reaction.[2][3] They received both US[4] and German patents[5] for the work.
Education
Hunsdiecker earned her Ph.D. from the University of Cologne.[6][7]
For many years it was not believed that a photographic image of Hunsdiecker was in existence. In 2020 an image was located by an undergraduate student at the University of Melbourne.
