Answer:
The first person to extract acetic acid from vinegar was the Muslim alchemist Jabir ibn Hayyan Geber (c. 721–815). The pure compound was not produced, however, for another ten centuries when the German chemist Georg Ernst Stahl (1660–1734) extracted acetic acid from vinegar in 1700 by distillation.
