Reading on Questions 1-13, which are based on Reading At the time, quinine was the only viable medical treatment for malaria. Tht: drug is derived from the bark of the cinchona treet, native to South Arnerica, and by 1856 demand fbr the drug was surpassing the available supply. Thus, when Hofmann made some passing comments about thc desirability of a synthetic substitute for quinine, it was unsurprising that his star pupil was moved to take up the challengc. During his vacation in 1856, Perkin spent his timc in the laboratory on the top flclor of his family's hcluse. IIe was attompting to manufacture quinine from anilincl, an inexpensive and readily available coal tar waste product. Dospitc his best efforts, however. he did not end up with quinine. Instead, he produced a mysterious dark sludge. l.uckily, Perkin's scientific training and nature prompted him to investigate the substance f'urther. Incorporating potassium dichromatc and alcohol into the anilinc at various stages of the experimental process, he finally produced a deep purple solution. And, proving the truth of thc lamous scientist Louis Pasteur's words'r:hanc:e l'avours only the prepared mind', Perkin saw thc potential of his unexpccted find. William Henry Perkin The man who inuented synthetic dyes William Henry Perkin was born on March 12,1838, in London, England. As a boy, Perkin's curiosity prompted early interests irr the arts, sciences, photography, and engineering. tsut it was a chance stumbling upon a run-down, yet functional, laboratory in his late grandfather's home that solidified the young man's enthusiasm fbr chetmistry. As a student at the City of l.ondon School, Perkin became immersed in the study of chemistry. FIis talent and devotion to the subject were perceived by his teacher, Thomas Flall, who encouraged him to attend a series of lectures given by the eminent scientist Michael Faraday at the Royal Institution. Those speeches fired the young chemist's enthusiasm further, and he later went on to attend the Royal College of Chemistry, which he succeeded in entering in 185.3, at the age of 15. At the time of Perkin's enrolment, the Royal College of Chemistry was headed by the noted German chemist August Wilhelm I{ofmann. Perkin's scientific gifts soon caught Hofmann's attention and, within tr,vo years, he becams' IJofmann's youngest assistant. Not long after that, Perkin made the scientific breakthrough that would bring him both fame and fortune. 17 For IELTS help http://letfl.com For IELTS help http://letfl.com [...]...
