Preferred Label : annulenes;
IUPAC definition : Mancude monocyclic hydrocarbons without side chains of the general formula C sub
i n /i /sub H sub i n /i /sub ( i n /i is an even number) or C sub i n /i /sub
H sub i n /i 1 /sub ( i n /i is an odd number). In systematic nomenclature an
annulene with seven or more carbon atoms may be named [ i n /i ]annulene, where i
n /i is the number of carbon atoms, e.g. [9]annulene for cyclonona-1,3,5,7-tetraene.;
