12.2 - Other monocyclic substituted aromatic hydrocarbons are named as derivatives of benzene or of one of the compounds listed in Part .1 of this rule. However, if the substituent introduced into such a compound is identical with one already present in that compound, then the substituted compound is named as a derivative of benzene (see Rule 61.4).Examples to Rule A-12.1
12.3 - The position of substituents is indicated by numbers except that o- (ortho), m- (meta) and p- (para) may be used in place of 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-, respectively, when only two substituents are present. The lowest numbers possible are given to substituents, choice between alternatives being governed by Rule A-2 so far as applicable except that when names are based on those of compounds listed in Part .1 of this rule the first priority for lowest numbers is given to the substituent(s) already present in those compounds.
12.4 - The generic name of monocyclic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is "arene".Examples to Rule A-12.3
