It highlights their unique stability due to resonance and the delocalization of π electrons, differentiating them from non-aromatic compounds. Understanding these properties is crucial for grasping reactions and applications involving aromaticity, which plays a vital role in the structure and function of many biological molecules and synthetic materials.

The arenes themselves generally are quite toxic; some are carcinogenic and inhalation of their vapors should be avoided. The volatile arenes are highly flammable and burn with a luminous sooty flame, in contrast to alkanes and alkenes, which usually burn with a bluish flame leaving little carbon residue.

In general, a nitrogen atom with three bonds and a lone pair of electrons can potentially act as a proton-acceptor (a base) - but basicity is reduced if the lone pair electrons are stabilized somehow.
