  2. Heterocyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyclic_compound

    For azepine, benzazepine is the preferred name. Likewise, the compounds with two benzene rings fused to the central heterocycle are carbazole, acridine, and dibenzoazepine. Thienothiophene are the fusion of two thiophene rings. Phosphaphenalenes are a tricyclic phosphorus-containing heterocyclic system derived from the carbocycle phenalene.

  3. Phenyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenyl_group

    In organic chemistry, the phenyl group, or phenyl ring, is a cyclic group of atoms with the formula C6H5, and is often represented by the symbol Ph (archaically φ) or Ø. The phenyl group is closely related to benzene and can be viewed as a benzene ring, minus a hydrogen, which may be replaced by some other element or compound to serve as a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptor_(Chemistry)

    The abbreviation o- (short for ortho, from Greek orthós for upright, straight), [8] m- (meta, Greek (roughly) for between) [9] and p- (para, from Greek pará for adjoining, to the side) [10] describe the three possible positional isomers of two substituents on a benzene ring. These are usually two independent single substituents, but in case ...

    The numbers for that type of side chain will be grouped in ascending order and written before the name of the side-chain. If there are two side-chains with the same alpha carbon, the number will be written twice. Example: 2,2,3-trimethyl- .

  6. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_compound

    Cyclic compounds that have both carbon and non-carbon atoms present are heterocyclic carbon compounds, and the name refers to inorganic cyclic compounds as well (e.g., siloxanes, which contain only silicon and oxygen in the rings, and borazines, which contain only boron and nitrogen in the rings). [5] Hantzsch–Widman nomenclature is ...

  7. IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry 2005 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    This naming method generally follows established IUPAC organic nomenclature. Hydrides of the main group elements (groups 13–17) are given -ane base names, e.g. borane, BH 3. Acceptable alternative names for some of the parent hydrides are water rather than oxidane and ammonia rather than azane.

    The Geneva Nomenclature of 1892 was created as a result of many other meetings in the past, the first of which was established in 1860 by August Kekulé. Another entity called the International Association of Chemical Societies (IACS) existed, and on 1911, gave vital propositions the new one should address: [ 2 ]

  9. Spiro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiro_compound

    A spiro compound, or spirane, from the Latin spīra, meaning a twist or coil, [22] [5]: 1138 [23] is a chemical compound, typically an organic compound, that presents a twisted structure of two or more rings (a ring system), in which 2 or 3 rings are linked together by one common atom, [2]: SP-0
