"Eliel calls his profile 'From Cologne to Chapel Hill', an international title since he felt 'always a member of the international confraternity of chemists'. He gave lectures about his researches in French, but had no time to read French novels, which he was advised to do by a senior critic to improve his French vocabulary on the occasion of a conference at Montpellier. He became famous for a structural formula of an N-alkyl group thought to look like the ears of a rabbit. When he published these results in Kemisk Tidskrift, the editor of the Swedish journal put a full size picture of a rabbit on the cover. (But this can only be considered as a minor example of chemical humour when compared ... with the extravagant examples of 100 years ago.) Eliel preferred to work alone and not as a member of a team: 'On the whole I have not enjoyed such collaborative efforts', proof of his strong personality."--Interdisciplinary Science Reviews "Eliel calls his profile 'From Cologne to Chapel Hill', an international title since he felt 'always a member of the international confraternity of chemists'.
