Kurt Alder (1902–1958) was a German chemist who, alongside Otto Diels, discovered the Diels-Alder reaction, a cornerstone of organic synthesis. He spent much of his career at the University of Cologne, focusing on the mechanisms and applications of cycloaddition reactions. His work earned him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1950.
