  2. Cyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane

    Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used). Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon. [5] Cyclohexyl (C 6 H 11) is the alkyl substituent of cyclohexane and is ...

  3. Cyclohexene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexene

    Cyclohexene is produced by the partial hydrogenation of benzene, a process developed by the Asahi Chemical company. [4] The main product of the process is cyclohexane because cyclohexene is more easily hydrogenated than benzene. In the laboratory, it can be prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol. [5] C 6 H 11 OH → C 6 H 10 + H 2 O

  4. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 6 H 6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon.

  5. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

  6. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    Norbornane (also called bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane). Unsubstituted cycloalkanes that contain a single ring in their molecular structure are typically named by adding the prefix "cyclo" to the name of the corresponding linear alkane with the same number of carbon atoms in its chain as the cycloalkane has in its ring.

  7. Cyclohexylbenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexylbenzene

    Cyclohexylbenzene is the organic compound with the structural formula C 6 H 5 −C 6 H 11. It is a derivative of benzene with a cyclohexyl substituent (C 6 H 11 ). It is a colorless liquid.

  8. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    3D structure A Newman projection is a drawing that helps visualize the 3-dimensional structure of a molecule. [ 1 ] This projection most commonly sights down a carbon-carbon bond, making it a very useful way to visualize the stereochemistry of alkanes.

  9. Hexachlorocyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexachlorocyclohexane

    It is sometimes erroneously called "benzene hexachloride" (BHC). They have been used as models for analyzing the effects of different geometric positions of the large atoms with dipolar bonds on the stability of the cyclohexane conformation. [1] The isomers are poisonous, pesticidal, and persistent organic pollutants, to varying degrees.
