Petersburg University. In these years, he became a close ally of the great Russian chemist D. Mendeleev and created his own scientific school in organic chemistry. Simultaneously with the years-a teacher at the Mikhailovsky Artillery School and the head of the Department of the Artillery Academy, a professor at the Department of Organic Chemistry of the St.

Petersburg Technological Institute and at the highest women's courses, professor of the Department of Organic Chemistry and the head of the Laboratory of the St. Petersburg University for years. The list of achievements of A. Favorsky and his many students is huge. In fact, all modern doctrine of hydrocarbons was built on his works. The synthesis of all modern polymers originates from the research of Taborsky.

Of particular importance for industry is the method of the synthesis of isoprene and isoprene rubber, and the method of synthesis of vinyl ethers, which is opened by the Favor.

From a year until the end of life, he is the supervisor of the Department of Organic Chemistry at the State Research Institute of Applied Chemistry in Leningrad. Head of the Department of Organic Chemistry at the Leningrad Chemical and Technology Institute with the years. From the years-the head of the organic department of the Research of the Chemical Institute of the Leningrad State University, and from a year until the end of his life-the head of the Department of High Molecular Compounds of Leningrad State University.

The President of the Russian Physical and Chemical Society named after D. was evacuated to the village of Borovoye of the North Kazakhstan region in the year. Left without a laboratory, which they did not manage to evacuate from Leningrad, Favorsky took on work in all directions carried out in the nearest areas. In particular, under his leadership, a balm was created for the treatment of wounds from the polymides of vinyl ethers, which was widely used in a hospital case.

In September, he returned to Leningrad, leading work to restore the activities of the university and scientific institutions of the city. Corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences with the city of the editor of the "Journal of the Russian Physics and Chemical Society", an outstanding Russian chemist has received international recognition.
