Oskar Piloty

Oskar Piloty was born the son of the painter Karl von Piloty in Munich. Due to the closeness of the Piloty family to the chemist Ludwig Knorr, who later married the sister of Oskar Piloty, he started studying chemistry at Adolf von Baeyers laboratory at the University of Munich in 1888. After failing an exam by Bayer in 1889 he transferred to the University of Wrzburg. He and his colleagues speculated that he failed because he fell in love with the daughter of Baeyer Piloty married her in 1892.
