3-Ethylpentane (C 7 H 16) is a branched saturated hydrocarbon. It is an alkane, and one of the many structural isomers of heptane, consisting of a five carbon chain with a two carbon branch at the middle carbon. An example of an alcohol derived from 3-ethylpentane is the tertiary alcohol 3-ethylpentan-3-ol. [3]
The longest possible main alkane chain is used; therefore 3-ethyl-4-methylhexane instead of 2,3-diethylpentane, even though these describe equivalent structures. The di-, tri- etc. prefixes are ignored for the purpose of alphabetical ordering of side chains (e.g. 3-ethyl-2,4-dimethylpentane, not 2,4-dimethyl-3-ethylpentane).
2-Phenylhexane is an aromatic hydrocarbon. It can be produced by a Friedel-Crafts alkylation between 1-chlorohexane and benzene ., [ 1 ] or by the reaction of benzene and 1-hexene with various acid catalysts such as antimony pentafluoride , [ 2 ] scandium(III) triflate , [ 3 ] and phosphoric acid .
Isopropyl group Methyl group. In organic chemistry, an alkyl group is an alkane missing one hydrogen. [1] The term alkyl is intentionally unspecific to include many possible substitutions.
In organic chemistry, an ethyl group (abbr. Et) is an alkyl substituent with the formula −CH 2 CH 3, derived from ethane (C 2 H 6). Ethyl is used in the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry's nomenclature of organic chemistry for a saturated two-carbon moiety in a molecule, while the prefix "eth-" is used to indicate the presence ...
3-Methylhexane is a branched hydrocarbon with two enantiomers. [2] It is one of the isomers of heptane. The molecule is chiral, and is one of the two isomers of heptane to have this property, the other being its structural isomer 2,3-dimethylpentane. The enantiomers are (R)-3-methylhexane [3] and (S)-3-methylhexane. [4]
3-Methylpentane is a branched alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the third carbon atom in a pentane chain. It is of similar structure to the isomeric 2-methylpentane , which has the methyl group located on the second carbon of the pentane chain.
In organic chemistry, an acetyl group is a functional group denoted by the chemical formula −COCH 3 and the structure −C(=O)−CH 3. It is sometimes represented by the symbol Ac [5] [6] (not to be confused with the element actinium). In IUPAC nomenclature, an acetyl group is called an ethanoyl group.
