As with cycloalkanes (Section 4.1), benzenes with more than two substituents are named by choosing a point of attachment as carbon 1 and numbering the substituents on the ring so that the second substituent has as low a number as possible.

IUPAC rules discourage the use of most such names but do allow some of the more widely used ones to be retained. Thus, methylbenzene is known commonly as toluene; hydroxybenzene as phenol; aminobenzene as aniline; and so on.

Remember if two of the same substituent appears then the prefix di- is used before the substituent's name. If a substituent from Figure \PageIndex2 is present it is given the parent name in the nomenclature.
