Spices and herbs have long played a romantic role inthe course of history. Spices and herbs were among thefirst natural products studied by organic chemists.
Extract pure compounds with these desirablefragrances and flavors and determine their structures,then synthesize in large quantity, at low cost, andwithout danger
Aromatic substances have rather simple structurescontain a six-carbon unit C6H5that passes unscathedthrough various chemical reactions that alter only therest of the structure.
Benzaldehyde (isolated from the oil of bitter almonds),
benzyl alcohol (isolated from gum benzoin, a balsamresin obtained from certain Southeast Asian trees), andtoluene (a hydrocarbon isolated from tolu balsam)

Benzene is the parent hydrocarbon of a classof substances that we now call aromaticcompounds, not because of their aroma, but
because of their special chemical properties,in particular, their stability.

Some Facts About Benzene
Benzene, C6H6, a highly unsaturated structurebenzene but does not behave as unsaturated
No typical addition reactions of alkenes or alkynes.Instead, benzene reacts mainly by substitution

The Kekul Structure of Benzene
Kekul : the single and double bonds exchange
positions around the ring so rapidly that thetypical reactions of alkenes cannot take place

Resonance Model for Benzene
Kekuls model is nearly, but not entirely correct.Two structures differ only in the arrangement of theelectrons; all of the atoms occupy the samepositions in both structuresresonance

Benzene is planar, carbon atom is at thecorner hexagon. C-C : 1.39 , intermediatebetween typical single (1.54 ) and double(1.34 )

Symbols for Benzene
The symbol with the inscribed circle emphasizesthe fact that the electrons are distributed evenlyaround the ring, and in this sense, it is perhapsthe more accurate of the two

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds Common names are acceptedby IUPAC.
Monosubstituted benzenes do not have common names
accepted by IUPAC : derivatives of benzene

The Resonance Energy of Benzene
Energy (heat) released is about 26 to 30 kcal/mol for each doublebond. Kekul structure (1,3,5-cyclohexatriene) should released 84
to 86 kcal/mol Stabilization energy, or resonance energy, is the difference between
the actual energy of the real molecule Benzene and other aromatic compounds usually react in such a way
as to preserve their aromatic structure and therefore retain theirresonance energy

Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution
The most common reactions of aromatic compounds involvesubstitution of other atoms or groups for a ring hydrogen onthe aromatic unit

Halogenation Chlorine or bromine is introduced into an aromatic ring by
using the halogen together with the corresponding iron halide
as a catalyst (that is, Cl2 + FeCl3 or Br2 + FeBr3).

Ring-Activating and Ring-Deactivating Substituents
benzene (left), toluene (middle), and nitrobenzene (right)
substituents that donate electrons to the ring will increase itselectron density and, hence, speed up the reaction;
substituents that withdraw electrons from the ring willdecrease electron density in the ring
