Methylcyclohexane is used as a solvent. It is mainly converted in naphtha reformers to toluene. [4] A special use is in PF-1 priming fluid in cruise missiles to aid engine start-up when they run on special nonvolatile jet fuel like JP-10. [5] Methylcyclohexane is also used in some correction fluids (such as White-Out) as a solvent.
4-Methylcyclohexene is an organic compound consisting of cyclohexene with a methyl group substituent attached to carbon most distant from the alkene group. Two other structural isomers are known: 1-methylcyclohexene and 3-methylcyclohexene .

trans-1,3-Disubstituted cyclohexanes are like cis-1,2- and cis-1,4- and can flip between the two equivalent axial/equatorial forms. [ 2 ] Cis -1,4-Di- tert -butylcyclohexane has an axial tert -butyl group in the chair conformation and conversion to the twist-boat conformation places both groups in more favorable equatorial positions.
Oxidation of 1-methylcyclohexene catalyzed by cytochrome P450 yields a 2:1 mixture of hydroxylation to epoxidation products. [4] The stereochemistry of hydroformylation has been examined using 1-methylcyclohexene. The main product has the formyl group on the less substituted alkene-carbon, trans with respect to the methyl substituent.
It has been patented for use in air fresheners. [8]U.S. Patent 4915825 describes a froth flotation process for cleaning coal where a mixture of 95% MCHM, 4% water, and 0.1% 4-methylcyclohexanemethanol monoether (such as 4-(methoxymethyl)cyclohexanemethanol) is used as a frothing agent, and finely divided coal particles adhere to air bubbles induced into the agent which rise to the surface.
The molecular motions involved in a chair flip are detailed in the figure on the right: The half-chair conformation (D, 10.8 kcal/mol, C 2 symmetry) is the energy maximum when proceeding from the chair conformer (A, 0 kcal/mol reference, D 3d symmetry) to the higher energy twist-boat conformer (B, 5.5 kcal/mol, D 2 symmetry).
Methylcyclohexanones are a group of three isomers: 2-methylcyclohexanone, 3-methylcyclohexanone, and 4-methylcyclohexanone. [1] They can be viewed as derivative of cyclohexanone. They can be prepared by oxidation of methylcyclohexane as well as partial hydrogenation of the corresponding cresols. All are colorless liquids. The 2- and 3-isomers ...
