Hugo Erdmann Life story


Hugo Wilhelm Traugott Erdmann was the German chemist who discovered, together with his doctoral advisor Jacob Volhard, the Volhard-Erdmann cyclization. In 1898 he was the first who coined the term noble gas. Erdmann invented the name Thiozone in 1908, hypothesizing that S₃ made up a large proportion of liquid sulfur.
