The paper traces the role of German women into the chemistry profession from 1925 to 1945, examining their relative numbers and experience in higher education, in academic and industrial careers as well as in professional organizations such as the Verein Deutscher Chemikerinnen. The paper examines the effect of the 1930s Depression, National Socialism, and World War II on women chemists, considering both general trends as well as the experiences and achievements of several individual women in a variety of situations. Finally, it considers the longterm consequences of these developments, such as the Nazi expulsion of Jewish women, destruction of women's organizations and devaluing of women's achievements, in limiting the recognition and participation of German women chemists after 1945.
本文追溯了1925年至1945年德国女性在化学专业领域所扮演的角色，审视了她们在高等教育、学术和工业职业以及诸如德国女化学家协会等专业组织中的相对数量和经历。本文探讨了20世纪30年代大萧条、纳粹主义和第二次世界大战对女化学家的影响，既考虑了总体趋势，也考量了几位女性在不同情况下的经历和成就。最后，本文思考了这些发展的长期后果，比如纳粹对犹太女性的驱逐、女性组织的破坏以及女性成就的贬值，这些都限制了1945年后德国女化学家获得认可和参与的机会。
