  2. Double bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond

    In chemistry, a double bond is a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond. Double bonds occur most commonly between two carbon atoms, for example in alkenes. Many double bonds exist between two different elements: for example, in a carbonyl group between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom.

  3. Carbon–carbon bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboncarbon_bond

    A carboncarbon bond is a covalent bond between two carbon atoms. [1] The most common form is the single bond: a bond composed of two electrons, one from each of the two atoms. The carboncarbon single bond is a sigma bond and is formed between one hybridized orbital from each of the carbon atoms. In ethane, the orbitals are sp 3 ...

  4. Organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_chemistry

    The ring group projecting to the right, an alkylidene, contains a metal-carbon double bond to ruthenium. Early examples of organic reactions and applications were often found because of a combination of luck and preparation for unexpected observations. The latter half of the 19th century however witnessed systematic studies of organic compounds.

  5. Allenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allenes

    Allenes. In organic chemistry, allenes are organic compounds in which one carbon atom has double bonds with each of its two adjacent carbon atoms (R2C=C=CR2, where R is H or some organyl group). [1] Allenes are classified as cumulated dienes. The parent compound of this class is propadiene (H2C=C=CH2), which is itself also called allene.

  6. Carbonyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_group

    Carbonyl group. For organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group with the formula C=O, composed of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom, and it is divalent at the C atom. It is common to several classes of organic compounds (such as aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids), as part of many larger functional groups.

  7. Alkene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkene

    In 1 H NMR spectroscopy, the hydrogen bonded to the carbon adjacent to double bonds will give a δ H of 4.5–6.5 ppm. The double bond will also deshield the hydrogen attached to the carbons adjacent to sp 2 carbons, and this generates δ H =1.6–2. ppm peaks. [14] Cis/trans isomers are distinguishable due to different J-coupling effect.

  8. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    Carbon dioxide is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CO 2. It is made up of molecules that each have one carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. It is found in the gas state at room temperature. As the source of carbon in the carbon cycle, atmospheric CO 2 is the primary carbon source

  9. Addition reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition_reaction

    In organic chemistry, an addition reaction is an organic reaction in which two or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule called the adduct. [1][2] An addition reaction is limited to chemical compounds that have multiple bonds. Examples include a molecule with a carboncarbon double bond (an alkene) or a triple bond (an alkyne).
