  2. Simple aromatic ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_aromatic_ring

    Simple aromatic rings, also known as simple arenes or simple aromatics, are aromatic organic compounds that consist only of a conjugated planar ring system. Many simple aromatic rings have trivial names. They are usually found as substructures of more complex molecules (" substituted aromatics"). Typical simple aromatic compounds are benzene ...

  3. Aromatic ring current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_ring_current

    A diagram of an aromatic ring current. B 0 is the applied magnetic field, the red arrow indicating its direction. The orange ring shows the direction of the ring current, and the purple rings show the direction of the induced magnetic field. An aromatic ring current is an effect observed in aromatic molecules such as benzene and naphthalene.

  4. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such resonance structure is called the Clar structure. In other words, a polycyclic ...

  5. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycyclic_aromatic...

    Bottom: atomic force microscopy image. A polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is a class of organic compounds that is composed of multiple aromatic rings. The simplest representative is naphthalene, having two aromatic rings, and the three-ring compounds anthracene and phenanthrene. PAHs are uncharged, non-polar and planar.

  6. Aromatic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_compound

    Heteroarenes are aromatic compounds, where at least one methine or vinylene (-C= or -CH=CH-) group is replaced by a heteroatom: oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur. [3] Examples of non-benzene compounds with aromatic properties are furan, a heterocyclic compound with a five-membered ring that includes a single oxygen atom, and pyridine, a heterocyclic compound with a six-membered ring containing one ...

  7. Category:Simple aromatic rings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Simple_aromatic_rings

    Simple aromatic rings are aromatic organic compounds (also known as arenes or aromatics) that consist only of conjugated planar ring systems with delocalized pi electron clouds instead of discrete alternating single and double bonds. Typical simple aromatic compounds are benzene and indole. Polycyclic aromatic compounds can be found in Category ...

  8. Aromaticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromaticity

    Two different resonance forms of benzene (top) combine to produce an average structure (bottom). In organic chemistry, aromaticity is a chemical property describing the way in which a conjugated ring of unsaturated bonds, lone pairs, or empty orbitals exhibits a stabilization stronger than would be expected by the stabilization of conjugation alone.

  9. Saturate, aromatic, resin and asphaltene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturate,_Aromatic,_Resin...

    Saturate, Aromatic, Resin and Asphaltene (SARA) is an analysis method that divides crude oil components according to their polarizability and polarity. The saturate fraction consists of nonpolar material including linear, branched, and cyclic saturated hydrocarbons (paraffins). Aromatics, which contain one or more aromatic rings, are slightly ...
