  2. Naphthalene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naphthalene

    Naphthalene is an organic compound with formula C 10 H 8. It is the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, and is a white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor that is detectable at concentrations as low as 0.08 ppm by mass. [15] As an aromatic hydrocarbon, naphthalene's structure consists of a fused pair of benzene rings.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_model

    The model shown to the left represents a ball-and-stick model of proline. The balls have colours: black represents carbon (C); red, oxygen (O); blue, nitrogen (N); and white, hydrogen (H). Each ball is drilled with as many holes as its conventional valence (C: 4; N: 3; O: 2; H: 1) directed towards the vertices of a tetrahedron. Single bonds are ...

  4. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-and-stick_model

    A plastic ball-and-stick model of proline. In chemistry, the ball-and-stick model is a molecular model of a chemical substance which displays both the three-dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds between them. [1] The atoms are typically represented by spheres, connected by rods which represent the bonds.

  6. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycyclic_aromatic...

    A Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is a class of organic compounds that is composed of multiple aromatic rings.Most are produced by the incomplete combustion of organic matter— by engine exhaust fumes, tobacco, incinerators, in roasted meats and cereals, [1] or when biomass burns at lower temperatures as in forest fires.

  7. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene and cyclohexane have a similar structure, only the ring of delocalized electrons and the loss of one hydrogen per carbon distinguishes it from cyclohexane. The molecule is planar. [ 58 ] The molecular orbital description involves the formation of three delocalized π orbitals spanning all six carbon atoms, while the valence bond ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribbon_diagram

    Ribbon diagrams are simple yet powerful, expressing the visual basics of a molecular structure (twist, fold and unfold). This method has successfully portrayed the overall organization of protein structures, reflecting their three-dimensional nature and allowing better understanding of these complex objects both by expert structural biologists ...

  9. Sodium naphthalene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_naphthalene

    Sodium naphthalene is an organic salt with the chemical formula Na + [C 10 H 8] −. In the research laboratory, it is used as a reductant in the synthesis of organic, organometallic, and inorganic chemistry. It is usually generated in situ. When isolated, it invariably crystallizes as a solvate with ligands bound to Na +. [1]
