Some of the early Some of the early researchers in organic researchers in organic
chemistry became intriguedchemistry became intrigued by by fragrant oils fragrant oils that could that could be extracted from certain be extracted from certain plants. The compounds plants. The compounds
responsible for theresponsible for the aromas, aromas, had similar chemical had similar chemical
properties. As a result, they properties. As a result, they werewere groupedgrouped together and together and
calledcalled AROMATICS AROMATICS COMPOUNDS.COMPOUNDS.
As more and more aromatic As more and more aromatic compounds werecompounds were isolatedisolated and and
studied, chemist gradually studied, chemist gradually realized that aromatic realized that aromatic
contained contained six carbon six carbon atoms atoms and had low and had low hydrogen – to – hydrogen – to –
carbon carbon ratios (relative to other ratios (relative to other hydrocarbon). They also hydrocarbon). They also realized that the term realized that the term
aromatic was aromatic was notnot always always accurate. Because there are accurate. Because there are
many many fragrant compounds fragrant compounds do do not have not have aromatic properties. aromatic properties.
Kekule was to say later that he must have dozed off Kekule was to say later that he must have dozed off at this point. In his at this point. In his dream the black balls of carbon the black balls of carbon turned into turned into black impsblack imps with forked tails that began with forked tails that began racing around the room and would soon be upsetting racing around the room and would soon be upsetting the apparatus of the laboratory. He was ready to run the apparatus of the laboratory. He was ready to run the rascals out. Then, almost suddenly, the confusion the rascals out. Then, almost suddenly, the confusion
died away as each imp grabbed the tail of the one died away as each imp grabbed the tail of the one ahead of him, the ahead of him, the six formingsix forming a whirling circle. One a whirling circle. One
hand of each imp held a tail, the other a white hand of each imp held a tail, the other a white handkerchief--and they waved to him as the group handkerchief--and they waved to him as the group

He said that he came awake with a start, realizing that the imps were acting out the realizing that the imps were acting out the formula formula for benzenefor benzene.
