  2. Ethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene

    In the mid-19th century, the suffix -ene (an Ancient Greek root added to the end of female names meaning "daughter of") was widely used to refer to a molecule or part thereof that contained one fewer hydrogen atoms than the molecule being modified. Thus, ethylene (C 2 H 4) was the "daughter of ethyl" (C 2 H 5). The name ethylene was used in ...

  3. Vinyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a vinyl group (abbr. Vi; [1] IUPAC name: ethenyl group [2]) is a functional group with the formula −CH=CH 2. It is the ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) molecule (H 2 C=CH 2) with one fewer hydrogen atom. The name is also used for any compound containing that group, namely R−CH=CH 2 where R is any other group of atoms.

  5. Vinylene group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinylene_group

    In chemistry, vinylene (also ethenylene or 1,2-ethenediyl) [1] is a divalent functional group (a part of a molecule) [2] with formula −CH=CH−; [3] namely, two carbons, each connected to the other by a double bond, to an hydrogen atom by a single bond, and to the rest of the molecule by another single bond.

  6. 1,2-Dichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-dichloroethylene

    1,2-Dichloroethylene or 1,2-DCE is the name for a pair of organochlorine compounds with the molecular formula C 2 H 2 Cl 2. The two compounds are isomers, each being colorless liquids with a sweet odor. It can exist as either of two geometric isomers, cis-1,2-dichloroethene or trans-1,2-dichloroethene, but is often used as a mixture of the two ...

    RCH=CH 2 + RCO 3 H → RCHOCH 2 + RCO 2 H. For ethylene, the epoxidation is conducted on a very large scale industrially using oxygen in the presence of silver-based catalysts: C 2 H 4 + 1/ 2 O 2 → C 2 H 4 O. Alkenes react with ozone, leading to the scission of the double bond. The process is called ozonolysis.

  9. Polyketone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyketone

    General chemical structure of a polyketone. Polyketones are a family of high-performance thermoplastic polymers. The polar ketone groups in the polymer backbone of these materials gives rise to a strong attraction between polymer chains, which increases the material's melting point (255 °C for copolymer (carbon monoxide ethylene), 220 °C for terpolymer (carbon monoxide, ethylene, propylene).
