34 Friedrich Wöhler (1800-1882) Organic Synthesis has come a long way from urea. "Perhaps you still remember the experiment I carried out in that fortunate time when I was working with you, in which I found that whenever one tries to react cyanic acid with ammonia a crystalline substance appears which is inert, behaving neither like cyanate nor like ammonia." To Berzelius (1828)
