Benzene (C₆H₆) is the archetype of aromatic compounds — a classical aristocrat of organic chemistry. Discovered by Faraday in 1825 and structurally elucidated by Kekulé in 1865, its planar six-membered ring with delocalized π electrons embodies a quantum-mechanical beauty. World production exceeds 50 million tonnes annually as the parent of polystyrene, nylon, phenolic resin, and polycarbonate precursors. IARC Group 1 carcinogen — a beauty with a deadly shadow.
