Summary:Chemical graph theory is a branch of mathematical chemistry which has an important effect on the development of the chemical sciences. The study of topological indices is currently one of the most active research fields in chemical graph theory. Topological indices help to predict many chemical and biological properties of chemical structures under study. The aim of this report is to study the molecular topology of some benzenoid systems. M-polynomial has wealth of information about the degree-based topological indices. We compute M-polynomials for triangular, hourglass, and jagged-rectangle benzenoid systems, and from these M-polynomials, we recover nine degree-based topological indices. Our results play a vital role in pharmacy, drug design, and many other applied areas.
