29.3 Structure of Benzene and Aromaticity (SB p.195)
The basic structural requirement for aromatic
compounds is that the molecule must be planar,
cyclic and with (4n + 2)  electrons delocalized in
the ring. n must be a natural number (i.e. n = 1, 2, 3, and
so on).
There are aromatic compounds without benzene ring.
An example is the 1,3-cyclopentadienyl anion. Can you
draw its structure and explain its aromaticity?

Aromatic hydrocarbons are the raw materials for the manufacture of
monomers and plasticizers in polymers, commonly used as solvents
and important constituents of lead-free gasoline.
Incomplete combustion and pyrolysis process favour the production
of PAHs. These compounds are encountered abundantly in the
atmosphere, soil and elsewhere in the environment from sources
that include engine exhaust, wood stove smoke, cigarette smoke
and charbroiled food. Coal tar and petroleum residues such as road
and roofing asphalt have high levels of PAHs.
