Amber supports only certain types of extra points, that are hard coded into
the code (e.g. the define_frames() routine in extra_pts.F90 in sander.) You
would have to grok this code (there are comments, but no formal
documentation), then add a new section.

What are you trying to do with this point? Note that you can generate
restraints (extra FF terms) that refer to the center of mass of the benzene
ring. Maybe that will serve your needs(?)
