Archibald Scott Couper

Archibald Scott Couper (1831-1892) was the author of On a New Chemical Theory, Philosophical Magazine 16, 104-116 (1858) [as excerpted in Alembic Club Reprint #21, On a New Chemical Theory and Researches on Salicylic Acid[1]] Friedrich August Kekul von Stradonitz claimed to solve the structure of Benzene in a dream. While his claims were well publicized and accepted, by the early 1920s Kekul's biographer came to the conclusion that Kekul's understanding of the tetravalent nature carbon bonding depended on the previous research of Archibald Scott Couper (1831-1892); further, the German Chemist Josef Loschmidt (1821-1895) had earlier posited a cyclic structure for benzene as early as 1862, although he had not actually proved this structure to be correct.
