Hugo Erdmann (8 May 1862 – 25 June 1910) was the German chemist who discovered, together with his doctoral advisor Jacob Volhard, the Volhard-Erdmann cyclization.

"Edelgas" in German) [cite journal|journal=Science|date=1901-02-15|volume=13|pages=268–270|last=Renouf|first=Edward|title=Noble gases|doi=10.1126/science.13.320.268] .
