Senyawa Aromatis
Aromatis pada awal abad ke 19 digunakan untuk menjelaskan beberapa senyawa parfum Sekarang dikelompokkan sebagai sifat kimia (senyawa takjenuh yang mengalami reaksi substitusi daripada adisi). They are distinguished from aliphatic compounds by electronic configuration.

Hence, compounds having benzene rings eventually came to be know as AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. Today chemists have a different definition of AROMATIC which we will discuss later in the chapter.

Characteristic Properties: 1) Special chemical stability 2) Give substitution reactions instead of addition 3) Show a ring currrent in the NMR (Chapter 13, Section 13.8)

A proton placed in the middle of the ring would be shielded!

Donation of electrons would interrupt ring resonance (36 kcal / mole). A strong electrophile is required - and often a catalyst.
Benzene Reactivity
Benzene requires a strong electrophile and a catalyst ..and then it undergoes substitution reactions, not addition.

MECHANISM
All of the reactions follow the same pattern of mechanism. The reagents combine to form a strong electrophile E+ ,and its partner (:X ), which react as follows:
