A class of organic compounds containing a resonant, unsaturated ring of carbon atoms Included are benzene, naphthalene, anthracene, and their derivatives
Organic compounds which contain a benzene ring, or a ring with similar chemical characteristics
A large family of hydrocarbon compounds based on the benzene structure Chemists link the name aromatic to the exceptional stability that derives from the benzene structure; see Benzene
(chemistry) of or relating to or containing one or more benzene rings; "an aromatic organic compound"
Affects digestive system and nutrition due to its ability to stimulate the appetite and gastric secretion based on the action of the volatile oil or other aromatic principle Aromatics are also used to relieve flatulence, open nasal passages, improve palatability of medicines or give a psychological boost to top of page
A term for wines with pronounced aroma, particularly those redolent of herbs or spices
having a strong distinctive fragrance; "the pine woods were more redolent"- Jean Stafford (chemistry) of or relating to or containing one or more benzene rings; "an aromatic organic compound
A type of hydrocarbon, such as benzene or toluene, added to gasoline in order to increase octane Some aromatics are toxic
A chemical that has a benzene ring in its molecular structure (benzene, toluene, xylene) Aromatic compounds have strong, characteristic odors
having a strong distinctive fragrance; "the pine woods were more redolent"- Jean Stafford
A form of bonding in which ring compounds share electrons over more than two atoms The electrons are delocalized This leads to unusual ring stability
Belonging to a class of carbon compounds derived from benzene or containing one or more benzene rings such as benzene, phenol, stryrene, toluene, and xylene
An aromatic plant or food has a strong, pleasant smell of herbs or spices. an evergreen shrub with deep green, aromatic leaves = fragrant. having a strong pleasant smell = fragrant
An aromatic wine has pervasive and intense aromas Certain grape varieties are said them to be "aromatic"
{s} odoriferous, fragrant; of a compound that contains one or more benzene or heterocyclic rings (Chemistry)
unsaturated hydrocarbon identified by one or more benzene rings or by chemical behavior similar to benzene The benzene ring is characterized by three double bonds alternating with single bonds between carbon atoms (compare with olefins) Because of these multiple bonds, aromatics are usually more reactive and have higher solvency than paraffins and naphthenes Aromatics readily undergo electrophylic substitution; that is, they react to add other active molecular groups, such as nitrates, sulfonates, etc Aromatics are used extensively as petrochemical building blocks in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics, and many other chemicals
1 A compound containing a series of benzene (6 Carbon) rings; so named because many have a distinctive odor 2 An organic compound that contains a benzene ring or that has properties similar to that of benzene; often detectable by NMR after the existence of a ring current
A plant, drug, or medicine, characterized by a fragrant smell, and usually by a warm, pungent taste, as ginger, cinnamon, spices
Originally mainly from Europe and America, these have been enthusiastically taken up by the younger smoker, with rich flavours like cherry, orange, chocolate, coffee, whisky and many more additives
A class of hydrocarbons consisting of cyclic conjugate carbon atoms, such as benzene or toluene, commonly added to gasoline in order to increase octane Some aromatics are toxic
A vegetable, herb, or spice that gives food a lively fragrance and flavor In classic cooking, a reference to "aromatics" most often means onions, carrot, and celery
Designates a coffee that fully manifests the aroma characteristic of its nature and origin
smelly things that are so strong that they penetrate muscles and improve circulation, think mustard packs or eucalyptus oil
A major group of unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbons containing one or more rings (e g , benzene) (These highly reactive and chemically versatile compounds have a strong, but not unpleasant, odor; thus the name aromatic )
A vegetable used as a flavor base for cooking, usually by sweating or sautéeing. Carrots, onions, garlic, peppers, and celery are often used for this purpose
Any of a large class of organic compounds whose molecular structure includes one or more planar rings of atoms, usually but not always six carbon atoms. The ring's carbon-carbon bonds (see bonding) are neither single nor double but a type characteristic of these compounds, in which electrons are shared equally with all the atoms around the ring in an electron cloud. The term was first applied 1860 to a class of hydrocarbons isolated from coal tar and distinguished by odours much stronger than those of other classes of hydrocarbons. In modern chemistry, aromaticity denotes the chemical behaviour, especially the low reactivity, of this class of molecules related to their bonding. The parent compound of this class is benzene (C6H6). See also hydrogenation
(Çevre) Any of a class of hydrocarbon molecules that have multiple carbon rings, and that include numerous carcinogenic substances and environmental pollutants ― abbreviation PAH
Chemical classification relating to the structure of hydrocarbons aromatic hydrocarbons have carbon atoms arranged in rings with some of the electrons shared over the whole ring, for example benzene and naphthalene
Class of hydrocarbons that have at least one benzene ring as part of their structure Generally describes benzene and benzene derivatives These products are used as components of unleaded gasolines and as feedstocks for petrochemicals such as cyclohexane and paraxylene, both of which are used in end products like nylons and polyesters
One of the three principal groups or series of hydrocarbon compounds that occurs naturally in crude oil New formulations of gasoline with increased octane levels often contain increased amounts of aromatics
This is a type of chemical compound referred to as a cyclic organic due to it's circular structure They are found in nearly all gasolines, normally as toluene Xylene is less common, and benzene is restricted to very low levels due to toxicity
