Richard Anschütz (1852-1937) was an important German chemist in the second half of the XIX century and the first quarter of the XX century. He carried out experimental studies in the field of organic chemistry. He proposed a new method for the synthesis of anthracene. He developed vacuum distillation. He prepared pure chloroform. He rescued the names of Archibald Scott Couper (1831-1892) and Joseph Loschmidt (1821-1895) from oblivion. The purpose of this paper is to familiarize readers with the important events in the life of Anschütz. In addition, literature on his selected articles and books is presented.

Palabras clave : R. Anschütz; Organic chemistry; Vacuum distillation; Chloroform; Germany - XIX-XX centuries.
