Erich Clar (August 23, 1902 – March 27, 1987) was an organic chemist who studied polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon chemistry. He is considered as the father of that field.[1] He was awarded the August Kekulé Medal by the Chemical Society of the GDR in 1965,[2] the highest award given by that society to foreign scientists,[3] and the first Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Research Award of the International Symposium on Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons in 1987.[4]
