2,2-Dimethylbutane, trivially known as neohexane at William Odling's 1876 suggestion, [4] is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 14 or (H 3 C-) 3-C-CH 2-CH 3. It is therefore an alkane , indeed the most compact and branched of the hexane isomers — the only one with a quaternary carbon and a butane (C 4 ) backbone.
The molecular formula C 6 H 14 (molar mass: 86.17 g/mol) may refer to: Dimethylbutanes 2,2-Dimethylbutane; 2,3-Dimethylbutane; Hexane; Methylpentanes 2-Methylpentane;
For example, compare isobutane (2-methylpropane) and n-butane (butane), which boil at −12 and 0 °C, and 2,2-dimethylbutane and 2,3-dimethylbutane which boil at 50 and 58 °C, respectively. [ 18 ] On the other hand, cycloalkanes tend to have higher boiling points than their linear counterparts due to the locked conformations of the molecules ...
Isobutane, also known as i-butane, 2-methylpropane or methylpropane, is a chemical compound with molecular formula HC(CH 3) 3. It is an isomer of butane. Isobutane is a colorless, odorless gas. It is the simplest alkane with a tertiary carbon atom.
For example, (CH 3) 2 CHCH 3, commonly known as isobutane, is treated as a propane chain with a methyl group bonded to the middle (2) carbon, and given the systematic name 2-methylpropane. However, although the name 2-methylpropane could be used, it is easier and more logical to call it simply methylpropane – the methyl group could not ...
IUPAC nomenclature is used for the naming of chemical compounds, based on their chemical composition and their structure. [1] For example, one can deduce that 1-chloropropane has a Chlorine atom on the first carbon in the 3-carbon propane chain.
Triptane, or 2,2,3-trimethylbutane, is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 7 H 16 or (H 3 C-) 3 C-C(-CH 3) 2 H. It is therefore an alkane , specifically the most compact and heavily branched of the heptane isomers, the only one with a butane (C 4 ) backbone.
Monobromopentanes are bromopentanes containing one bromine atom, with the formula C 5 H 11 Br. There are three isomers of unbranched monobromopentane: 1-Bromopentane; 2-Bromopentane [1] (chiral) 3-Bromopentane; There are four isomers of monobromopentane based on 2-methylbutane: 1-Bromo-2-methylbutane (chiral) 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane; 2-Bromo-2 ...
