Epithet of an extensive group of organic compounds, consisting of benzene and its homologues (i.e. hydrocarbons of the formula Cn H2n–6, with the alcohols, acids, and bases derived from them). In modern use, pertaining to or designating a compound with one or more planar conjugated rings of the form typified by the benzene molecule; aromatic sextet, a group of six pi-electrons in the ring of an aromatic molecule regarded as responsible for its aromaticity. Called aromatique by Kekulé in 1865 ( Bull. de la Soc. Chim. de Paris), on account of the peculiar and fragrant odours possessed by some of them, especially by certain derivatives of benzene, such as benzoic acid, bitter almond oil, &c.

Rev. 55 10 One of the most important developments in organic chemistry in recent years has been the attention devoted to what may be described collectively as ‘non-benzenoid aromatic compounds’. [Note] This term is taken here to refer to carbocyclic compounds only and is not meant to include heterocycles. 1964 J. W. Linnett Electronic Struct. Molecules vi. 89 The benzene molecule is too complicated for a complete theoretical treatment of all the thirty valence-shell electrons. Consequently attention has always been focused on the six electrons which, in the molecular orbital terminology, form the π-system. This is the group which has also been called the aromatic sextet. 1972 Sci. Amer. Aug. 32 (caption) Whether a given system is aromatic, nonaromatic or antiaromatic depends on how many of its electrons are ‘delocalized’. 1986 Pure & Applied Chem.
