He began studying chemistry at the University of Göttingen in 1867, where Friedrich Wöhler then headed organic chemistry, spent a semester at the University of Berlin with August Wilhelm von Hofmann, and took his doctorate at Göttingen in 1869. He worked as a professor at the University of Bonn from 1870 to 1889 and at the University of Göttingen from 1889 to 1915, where his doctoral students included Adolf Sieverts and Walter Haworth.
