  2. 2-Chlorobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Chlorobutane

    2-Chlorobutane, along with other alkyl halides, is a useful intermediate in many different organic reactions. The halogen group is an effective leaving group, leading to its use in both elimination and substitution reactions. In addition, the compound is also a candidate for coupling reactions via a Grignard reagent.

  3. Arene substitution pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arene_substitution_pattern

    Although the specifics vary depending on the compound, in simple disubstituted arenes, the three isomers tend to have rather similar boiling points. However, the para isomer usually has the highest melting point, and the lowest solubility in a given solvent, of the three isomers. [1]

  4. But-2-ene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/But-2-ene

    The two isomers are extremely difficult to separate by distillation because of the proximity of their boiling points (~4 °C for cis and ~1 °C for trans [5]). However, separation is unnecessary in most industrial settings, as both isomers behave similarly in most of the desired reactions.

  5. Structural isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_isomer

    Functional isomers are structural isomers which have different functional groups, resulting in significantly different chemical and physical properties. [ 11 ] An example is the pair propanal H 3 C–CH 2 –C(=O)-H and acetone H 3 C–C(=O)–CH 3 : the first has a –C(=O)H functional group, which makes it an aldehyde , whereas the second has ...

  7. Isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomer

    Discounting isomers that are equivalent under rotations, there are nine isomers that differ by this criterion, and behave as different stable substances (two of them being enantiomers of each other). The most common one in nature ( myo -inositol) has the hydroxyls on carbons 1, 2, 3 and 5 on the same side of that plane, and can therefore be ...

  8. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    (Here M is a metal atom, and X and Y are two different types of ligands.) In the cis isomer, the two Y ligands are adjacent to each other at 90°, as is true for the two chlorine atoms shown in green in cis-[Co(NH 3) 4 Cl 2] +, at left. In the trans isomer shown at right, the two Cl atoms are on opposite sides of the central Co atom.

  9. Valence isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_isomer

    In organic chemistry, two molecules are valence isomers when they are constitutional isomers that can interconvert through pericyclic reactions. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Benzene
