Dakin, H. D. Am. Chem. J. 1909, 42, 477–498. Henry D. Dakin (1880–1952) was born in London, England. During WWI, he invented his hypochlorite solution (Dakin’s solution), which became a popular antiseptic for the treatment of wounds. After the Great War, he emmigrated to New York, where he investigated the B vitamins.
