Educated by Gmelin and Berzelius, yhis scientist discovered silicon nitride, silicon tetrahydride, and calcium carbide, and was the first to suggest that the silanes might exhibit an "organic" chemistry paralleling that of the hydrocarbons.

Earning an honor from Napoleon III for his method of extracting aluminum, his work with benzaldehyde brought the theory of radicals, the first attempt to understand the structure of organic compounds. FTP, identify this man, whose friendship with Liebig and their common interest in cyanates led to his 1828 synthesis of urea.
