After graduating from high school and having survived the ravages of war in Budapest and realizing the difficulties facing life in a small and war torn country, I started to study chemistry upon entering university, being attracted by the wide diversity it offered.
Classes at the Technical University of Budapest were relatively small. We probably started with a class of 70 or 80, whose numbers were rapidly pared down during the first year to maybe half by rather demanding "do or die" oral examinations, where the ones who failed could not continue. This was a rather cruel process, because laboratory facilities were so limited that only few could be accommodated. At the same time the laboratory training was thorough. For example, in the organic laboratory we did some 40 Gatterman preparations. It certainly gave a solid foundation.
Organic chemistry particularly intrigued me and I was fortunate later to become a research assistant to Professor Geza Zemplen, the senior professor of organic chemistry in Hungary, who himself was a student of

George Olah won the 1994 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
George Olah of the University of Southern California has won the 1994 Nobel Prize in chemistry "for revolutionizing the study of hydrocarbons and uncovering new ways to use them in the petroleum industry." Much of his late work was on cage molecules, particularly fullerenes
The citation:
For his contributions to carbocation chemistry.
The announcement:
Hydrocarbons constitute a very large and important group of organic compounds for example most products from natural mineral oil are hydrocarbons. Although some hydrocarbons prepared by chemists around the turn of the century were thought to be ionic e.g., a group of compounds formed from benzene and methane ("triarylmethane derivatives") these were largely regarded as curiosities. When some chemists in Britain (Ingold and Hughes) and Germany (Meerwein) in the 1920s and 1930s started detailed studies of how chemical reactions between organic molecules took place it, however, became apparent that positively charged hydrocarbons what chemists call "carbocations" actually could occur as very shortlived (lifetimes of microseconds to nanoseconds) intermediates in the reactions. Since these postulated "carbocation intermediates" were likely to be not only very shortlived but also very reactive, it was generally assumed that one would never be able to prepare them in some quantities. Nor be able to study their properties with different physical techniques e.g., NMR and infrared (IR) spectroscopy or X-ray diffraction like one could do with normal unchanged hydrocarbons. But the direction of this field did change completely through the original and imaginative work by this year's Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry Professor George A. Olah.

Olah, George A.,
in full GEORGE ANDREW OLAH (b. May 22, 1927, Budapest, Hung.), Hungarian-American chemist who won the 1994 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for work conducted in the early 1960s that isolated the positively charged, electron-deficient fragments of hydrocarbons known as carbocations (or carbonium ions). In 1949 Olah received a doctorate from the Technical University of Budapest, where he taught until 1954. He worked at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences for two years before emigrating from Hungary during the revolution of 1956. He became a research scientist at the Dow Chemical Company in Canada (1957-64) and in Framingham, Mass., U.S. (1964-65). He was a professor at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio (1965-1977), before joining the faculty of the University of Southern California at Los Angeles, where he became director of the Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute in 1980. Although theoretically recognized for several decades as a common intermediate in many organic reactions, carbocations were unobservable because they were a short-lived, unstable class of compound. Olah was able to successfully disassemble, examine, and then recombine carbocations through the use of superacids and ultracold solvents. His breakthrough, announced in 1962, initiated a new branch of organic chemistry and led to the development of innovative carbon-based fuels and higher-octane gasoline.

The fascinating autobiographical reflections of Nobel Prize winner George Olah
How did a young man who grew up in Hungary between the two World Wars go from cleaning rubble and moving pianos at the end of World War II in the Budapest Opera House to winning the Nobel Prize in Chemistry? George Olah takes us on a remarkable journey from Budapest to Cleveland to Los Angeles-with a stopover in Stockholm, of course. An innovative scientist, George Olah is truly one of a kind, whose amazing research into extremely strong acids and their new chemistry yielded what is now commonly known as superacidic "magic acid chemistry."

Nobel Prize Winning Chemists George A. Olah The Nobel Prize In Chemistry 1994 George A. Olah was born in Budapest, Hungary, on May 22, 1927 the son of Julius Olah and Magda Krasznal. His father was a lawyer. He grew up between the two world wars and received a rather solid general education. Organic chemistry particularly intrigued him and he was fortunate later to become a research assistant to Professor Geza Zemplen, the senior professor of organic chemistry in Hungary, who himself was a student of Emil Fischer in Berlin. Zemplen was a carbohydrate chemist, much interested in glycosides. Early in their association it became clear that his ideas and interest were not always closely matching Olah's. When Olah suggested that fluorine containing carbohydrates may be of interest in coupling reactions, his reaction was not unexpectedly very negative. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1994 "for his contribution to carbocation chemistry". He married Judith Lengyel in 1949. They knew each other from their early youth and are happily married now for more than 45 years. Judy worked initially as a technical secretary at the Technical University. Their older son George John was born in Budapest in 1954. Their younger son Ronald Peter was born in Sarnia in 1959. Dow Chemical, with its home base at Midland, Michigan was establishing at the time. He was offered a position to join this new laboratory. The Sarnia years at Dow were productive. It was during this period in the late 50's that his initial workon stable carbocations was started. Dow was and is a major user of carbocationic chemistry, such as the Friedel-Crafts type manufacture of etylbenzene for styrene production. His work thus also had practical significance and helped to improve some industrial processes.
