Glyph origin

Characters in the same phonetic series () (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
*mus
*mus

Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *mus) : semantic  (grass) + phonetic  (OC *mus).

Applying this character to mean “cyclopentadiene” in organic chemistry results from the decomposition of the character as an ideogrammic compound (會意) :  (radical for aromatic compounds) +  (five-carbon ring), since the conjugate base of cyclopentadiene (cyclopentadienyl anion) is aromatic.
