  2. Polychlorinated dibenzodioxins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polychlorinated_dibenzodioxins

    The skeletal formula and substituent numbering scheme of the parent compound dibenzo-1,4-dioxin. The structure of dibenzo-1,4-dioxin consists of two benzene rings joined by two oxygen bridges. This makes the compound an aromatic diether. The name dioxin formally refers to the central dioxygenated ring, which is stabilized by the two flanking ...

  3. Dioxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioxin

    1,2-Dioxin or 1,4-Dioxin, two unsaturated heterocyclic 6-membered rings in which two carbon atoms have been replaced by oxygen atoms, which gives the molecular formula C 4 H 4 O 2 Dibenzo-1,4-dioxin , also known as dibenzodioxin or dibenzo- p -dioxin (molecular formula C 12 H 8 O 2 ), in which two benzene rings are connected through two oxygen ...

  4. Olympicene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympicene

    Olympicene is an organic carbon-based molecule formed of five rings, of which four are benzene rings, joined in the shape of the Olympic rings.. The molecule was conceived in March 2010 as a way to celebrate the 2012 London Olympics by Graham Richards of University of Oxford and Antony Williams.

  5. Aromatic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_compound

    Heteroarenes are aromatic compounds, where at least one methine or vinylene (-C= or -CH=CH-) group is replaced by a heteroatom: oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur. [3] Examples of non-benzene compounds with aromatic properties are furan, a heterocyclic compound with a five-membered ring that includes a single oxygen atom, and pyridine, a heterocyclic compound with a six-membered ring containing one ...

  6. Heterocyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyclic_compound

    A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring(s). [1] Heterocyclic organic chemistry is the branch of organic chemistry dealing with the synthesis, properties, and applications of organic heterocycles .

  7. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

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

    Identification of the ring or chain with the maximum number of senior groups. Identification of the ring or chain with the most senior elements (In order: N, P, Si, B, O, S, C). Identification of the parent compound. Rings are senior to chains if composed of the same elements. For cyclic systems: Identification of the parent cyclic ring.

  8. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 6 H 6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon.

  9. 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 ...
