2. Chemistry. 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.
