Edgar Heilbronner (13 May 1921 – 28 August 2006) was a Swiss German chemist.[1] In 1964 he published the concept of Möbius cyclic annulenes,[2] but the first Möbius aromatic was not synthesized until 2003.[3][4]
Edgar Heilbronner was a professor at the ETH Zürich, Switzerland for many years but then was offered a professorship in Basel, Switzerland where he spent the remainder of his career.
In 1998 he co-authored the standard work in the area of chemistry on stamps, A Philatelic Ramble Through Chemistry with Foil A. Miller.[5][6]
