  3. Ethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethane

    Ethane (US: / ˈ ɛ θ eɪ n / ETH-ayn, UK: / ˈ iː-/ EE-) is a naturally occurring organic chemical compound with chemical formula C 2 H 6. At standard temperature and pressure, ethane is a colorless, odorless gas. Like many hydrocarbons, ethane is isolated on an industrial scale from natural gas and as a petrochemical by-product of petroleum ...

    For example, the absorption spectrum for ethane shows a σ → σ* transition at 135 nm and that of water a n → σ* transition at 167 nm with an extinction coefficient of 7,000. Benzene has three aromatic π → π* transitions; two E-bands at 180 and 200 nm and one B-band at 255 nm with extinction coefficients respectively 60,000, 8,000 and 215.

  5. Catalytic reforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_reforming

    The overhead offgas product from the stabilizer contains the byproduct methane, ethane, propane and butane gases produced by the hydrocracking reactions as explained in the above discussion of the reaction chemistry of a catalytic reformer, and it may also contain some small amount of hydrogen.

  7. Hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocarbon

    One or more of the hydrogen atoms can be replaced with other atoms, for example chlorine or another halogen: this is called a substitution reaction. An example is the conversion of methane to chloroform using a chlorination reaction. Halogenating a hydrocarbon produces something that is not a hydrocarbon. It is a very common and useful process.

  8. Alkane metathesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane_metathesis

    These systems catalyze the conversion of ethane to give methane, propane and traces of butane. [1] Cross metathesis can also take place, for example methane and propane can react to give two molecules of ethane. Ethane reacts with toluene to give ethylbenzene and xylene. The reaction involves metallocyclobutane intermediates just as in olefin ...

  9. Transalkylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transalkylation

    The reaction is used for the transfer of methyl and ethyl groups between benzene rings. This is of particular value in the petrochemical industry [1] to manufacture p-xylene, styrene, [2] and other aromatic compounds. Motivation for using transalkylation reactions is based on a difference in production and demand for benzene, toluene, and xylenes.
