- Carbon compounds can form rings
- Follow the same naming rules and add cyclo- in front of the parent chain
- When numbering, you can count clockwise or counterclockwise, but where you start (#1) should be on one of the side chains because you are using the lowest numbering system

Aromatics
- When a cyclic 6 carbon chain forms, it can create a resonance structure called Benzene
