  2. Isopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopentane

    3) 2 (C 2 H 5). Isopentane is a volatile and flammable liquid. It is one of three structural isomers with the molecular formula C 5 H 12, the others being pentane (n-pentane) and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane). Isopentane is commonly used in conjunction with liquid nitrogen to achieve a liquid bath temperature of −160 °C.

  3. 2-Methylpentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methylpentane

    2-Methylpentane, trivially known as isohexane, is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14.It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the second carbon atom in a pentane chain.

    For example, the three isomers of xylene CH 3 C 6 H 4 CH 3, commonly the ortho-, meta-, and para-forms, are 1,2-dimethylbenzene, 1,3-dimethylbenzene, and 1,4-dimethylbenzene. The cyclic structures can also be treated as functional groups themselves, in which case they take the prefix "cyclo alkyl -" (e.g. "cyclohexyl-") or for benzene, "phenyl-".

  5. Alkyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkyl_group

    A cycloalkyl group is derived from a cycloalkane by removal of a hydrogen atom from a ring and has the general formula −C n H 2n−1. [2] Typically an alkyl is a part of a larger molecule. In structural formulae , the symbol R is used to designate a generic (unspecified) alkyl group.

    2,2,4,4-Tetramethyl-3-t-butyl-pentane-3-ol or tri-tert-butylcarbinol is an organic compound with formula C 13 H 28 O, ((H 3 C) 3 C) 3 COH, or t Bu 3 COH. [1] It is an alcohol that can be viewed as a structural analog of a tridecane isomer ( 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3- t -butylpentane ) where the central hydrogen has been replaced by a hydroxyl group ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butyl_group

    Butan-2-yl (sec-butyl) group is chiral. The carbon atom at position 2 is a stereocenter. It has four different groups attached: −H, −CH 3, −CH 2 −CH 3, and −R (the R group is not equal to those three groups). The names of the two chiral groups are: (2S)-butan-2-yl and (2R)-butan-2-yl.

  8. Pentyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentyl_group

    Pentyl is a five-carbon alkyl group or substituent with chemical formula-C 5 H 11.It is the substituent form of the alkane pentane.. In older literature, the common non-systematic name amyl was often used for the pentyl group.

    As determined by the enthalpies below the corresponding molecules, the enthalpy of reaction for 2-methyl-1-butene going to 2-methyl-butane is −29.07 kcal/mol, which is in great agreement with the value calculated from NIST, [15] −28.31 kcal/mol. For 2-butanone going to 2-butanol, enthalpy of reaction is −13.75 kcal/mol, which again is in ...
