    C 5 H 10 is the molecular formula of 13 hydrocarbon isomers (represented by their CAS numbers on the chart). They can be divided into cycloalkanes and alkenes . Cycloalkanes

  3. Pentene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentene

    1-Pentene is an alpha-olefin.Most often, 1-pentene is made as a byproduct of catalytic or thermal cracking of petroleum or during the production of ethylene and propylene via thermal cracking of hydrocarbon fractions.

    Ethylmethylacetylene, 1-Ethyl-2-methylacetylene propyl acetylene. ... 2-Pentyne, an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 C≡CCH 3 and is an internal alkyne.

  5. Acetylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylene

    Acetylene (systematic name: ethyne) is the chemical compound with the formula C 2 H 2 and structure H−C≡C−H.It is a hydrocarbon and the simplest alkyne. [8] This colorless gas is widely used as a fuel and a chemical building block.

  6. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    Because the cis–trans and E–Z systems compare different groups on the alkene, it is not strictly true that Z corresponds to cis and E corresponds to trans. For example, trans-2-chlorobut-2-ene (the two methyl groups, C1 and C4, on the but-2-ene backbone are trans to each other) is (Z)-2-chlorobut-2-ene (the chlorine and C4 are together ...

  7. Oxymercuration reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxymercuration_reaction

    In organic chemistry, the oxymercuration reaction is an electrophilic addition reaction that transforms an alkene (R 2 C=CR 2) into a neutral alcohol. In oxymercuration, the alkene reacts with mercuric acetate (AcO−Hg−OAc) in aqueous solution to yield the addition of an acetoxymercury (−HgOAc) group and a hydroxy (−OH) group across the ...

  8. Hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocarbon

    The formula for acyclic saturated hydrocarbons (i.e., alkanes) is C n H 2n+2. [1]: 623 The most general form of saturated hydrocarbons, (whether linear or branched species, and whether with or without one or more rings) is C n H 2n+2(1-r), where r is the number of rings. Those with exactly one ring are the cycloalkanes.

  9. Wacker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wacker_process

    2 CuCl + ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ O 2 + 2 HCl → 2 CuCl 2 + H 2 O Only the alkene and oxygen are consumed. Without copper(II) chloride as an oxidizing agent , Pd(0) metal (resulting from beta-hydride elimination of Pd(II) in the final step) would precipitate, stopping Philips' reaction after one cycle.
