Chemical Polycyclic Hydrocarbons, Aromatic

Name Polycyclic Hydrocarbons, Aromatic
Equivalent Terms Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Polycyclic | Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Polynuclear | Aromatic Polycyclic Hydrocarbons | Hydrocarbons, Aromatic Polycyclic | Hydrocarbons, Polycyclic Aromatic | Hydrocarbons, Polynuclear Aromatic | Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons | Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Definition A major group of unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbons containing two or more rings. The vast number of compounds of this important group, derived chiefly from petroleum and coal tar, are rather highly reactive and chemically versatile. The name is due to the strong and not unpleasant odor characteristic of most substances of this nature. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 12th ed, p96)
