Aromatic compounds are commonly used in organic synthesis and are involved in many reaction types, following both additions and removals, as well as saturation and dearomatization. Heteroarenes are aromatic compounds, where at least one methine or vinylene (-C= or -CH=CH-) group

140-506: A chemistry typified by benzene " and "cyclically conjugated." The word "aromatic" originates from the past grouping of molecules based on odor, before their general chemical properties were understood. The current definition of aromatic compounds does not have any relation to their odor. Aromatic compounds are now defined as cyclic compounds satisfying Hückel's Rule . Aromatic compounds have the following general properties: Arenes are typically split into two categories - benzoids, that contain

An example of electrophilic aromatic substitution is the nitration of salicylic acid , where a nitro group is added para to the hydroxide substituent: Nucleophilic aromatic substitution involves displacement of

315-429: Is aromatic, though strain within the structure causes a slight deviation from the precisely planar structure necessary for aromatic categorization. Another example of a non-benzylic monocyclic arene is the cyclopropenyl (cyclopropenium cation), which satisfies Hückel's rule with an n equal to 0. Note, only the cationic form of this cyclic propenyl is aromatic, given that neutrality in this compound would violate either

420-494: Is fairly non-reactive, which is the basis of its main application: in a eutectic mixture with diphenyl ether , as a heat transfer agent. This mixture is stable to 400 °C. Biphenyl does undergo sulfonation which, followed by base hydrolysis, produces p -hydroxybiphenyl and p , p ′-dihydroxybiphenyl, which are useful fungicides. In other substitution reactions, it undergoes halogenation. Polychlorinated biphenyls were once popular pesticides. Lithium biphenyl contains

455-711: Is part of the active group in the antibiotic oritavancin . Biphenyl prevents the growth of molds and fungus , and is therefore used as a preservative ( E230 , in combination with E231, E232 and E233), particularly in the preservation of citrus fruits during transportation. It is no longer approved as a food additive in the European Union. Biphenyl is mildly toxic, but can be degraded biologically by conversion into nontoxic compounds. Some bacteria are able to hydroxylate biphenyl and its polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Aromatic hydrocarbon Aromatic compounds or arenes usually refers to organic compounds "with

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 nitrogen atom. Hydrocarbons without an aromatic ring are called aliphatic . Approximately half of compounds known in

560-508: Is the simplest example of a PAH. PAHs occur in oil , coal , and tar deposits, and are produced as byproducts of fuel burning (whether fossil fuel or biomass). As pollutants, they are of concern because some compounds have been identified as carcinogenic , mutagenic , and teratogenic . PAHs are also found in cooked foods. Studies have shown that high levels of PAHs are found, for example, in meat cooked at high temperatures such as grilling or barbecuing, and in smoked fish. They are also

805-410: The benzene ring. Although benzylic arenes are common, non-benzylic compounds are also exceedingly important. Any compound containing a cyclic portion that conforms to Hückel's rule and is not a benzene derivative can be considered a non-benzylic aromatic compound. Of annulenes larger than benzene, [12]annulene and [14]annulene are weakly aromatic compounds and [18]annulene, Cyclooctadecanonaene ,

840-404: The biphenyl. Rotation about the single bond in biphenyl, and especially its ortho-substituted derivatives, is sterically hindered . For this reason, some substituted biphenyls show atropisomerism ; that is, the individual C 2 - symmetric -isomers are optically stable . Some derivatives, as well as related molecules such as BINAP , find application as ligands in asymmetric synthesis . In

875-409: The case of unsubstituted biphenyl, the equilibrium torsional angle is 44.4° and the torsional barriers are quite small, 6.0 kJ/mol at 0° and 6.5 kJ/mol at 90°. Adding ortho substituents greatly increases the barrier: in the case of the 2,2'-dimethyl derivative, the barrier is 17.4 kcal/mol (72.8 kJ/mol). Substituted biphenyls have many uses. They are prepared by various coupling reactions including

910-414: The circle symbol for a six-center six-electron bond can be compared to the Y symbol for a three-center two-electron bond . Benzene derivatives have from one to six substituents attached to the central benzene core. Examples of benzene compounds with just one substituent are phenol , which carries a hydroxyl group, and toluene with a methyl group. When there is more than one substituent present on

945-540: The gas phase the molecule exists in two enantiomorphic twisted forms with an angle between the planes of the two rings of 44.4°. In the room-temperature solid, biphenyl is crystalline with space group P2 1 /c, which does not allow for chiral crystals. Rather than there being a double-well potential entailing the two twisted conformations, the potential energy is minimized at zero twist. Biphenyl occurs naturally in coal tar , crude oil , and natural gas and can be isolated from these sources via distillation . It

980-414: The methyl and hydroxyl group are ortho-para directors, the ortho and para isomers are typically favoured. Xylenol has two methyl groups in addition to the hydroxyl group, and, for this structure, 6 isomers exist. Arene rings can stabilize charges, as seen in, for example, phenol (C 6 H 5 –OH), which is acidic at the hydroxyl (OH), as charge on the oxygen (alkoxide –O ) is partially delocalized into

1015-545: The octet rule or Hückel's rule . Other non-benzylic monocyclic arenes include the aforementioned heteroarenes that can replace carbon atoms with other heteroatoms such as N, O or S. Common examples of these are the six-membered pyrrole and five-membered pyridine , both of which have a substituted nitrogen Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons , also known as polynuclear aromatic compounds (PAHs) are aromatic hydrocarbons that consist of fused aromatic rings and do not contain heteroatoms or carry substituents . Naphthalene

1050-540: The ortho, para or meta positions, depending on the directivity of the current substituents to make more complex benzene derivatives, often with several isomers. Electron flow leading to re-aromatization is key in ensuring the stability of such products. For example, three isomers exist for cresol because the methyl group and the hydroxyl group (both ortho para directors) can be placed next to each other ( ortho ), one position removed from each other ( meta ), or two positions removed from each other ( para ). Given that both

1085-462: The ring itself. This represents the equivalent nature of the six carbon-carbon bonds all of bond order 1.5. This equivalency can also explained by resonance forms . The electrons are visualized as floating above and below the ring, with the electromagnetic fields they generate acting to keep the ring flat. The circle symbol for aromaticity was introduced by Sir Robert Robinson and his student James Armit in 1925 and popularized starting in 1959 by

1120-494: The ring, their spatial relationship becomes important for which the arene substitution patterns ortho , meta , and para are devised. When reacting to form more complex benzene derivatives, the substituents on a benzene ring can be described as either activated or deactivated , which are electron donating and electron withdrawing respectively. Activators are known as ortho-para directors, and deactivators are known as meta directors. Upon reacting, substituents will be added at
