    ChemAxon Name <> Structure – ChemAxon IUPAC (& traditional) name to structure and structure to IUPAC name software. As used at chemicalize.org; chemicalize.org A free web site/service that extracts IUPAC names from web pages and annotates a 'chemicalized' version with structure images. Structures from annotated pages can also be searched.

  3. Methyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_group

    This is a free rotation only in the simplest cases like gaseous methyl chloride CH 3 Cl. In most molecules, the remainder R breaks the C ∞ symmetry of the R−C axis and creates a potential V(φ) that restricts the free motion of the three protons. For the model case of ethane CH 3 CH 3, this is discussed under the name ethane barrier. In ...

  4. Hydroxymethyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxymethyl_group

    It consists of a methylene bridge (−CH 2 − unit) bonded to a hydroxyl group (−OH). This makes the hydroxymethyl group an alcohol . It has the identical chemical formula with the methoxy group ( −O−CH 3 ) that differs only in the attachment site and orientation to the rest of the molecule.

  5. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry)

    The red and white balls represent the hydroxyl group (−OH). The three "R"s stand for carbon substituents or hydrogen atoms. [1] In chemistry, an alcohol (from Arabic al-kuḥl 'the kohl'), [2] is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl (−OH) functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom.

  6. Methenium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methenium

    Experiments and calculations generally agree that the methenium ion is planar, with threefold symmetry. [3] The carbon atom is a prototypical (and exact) example of sp 2 hybridization. Preparation and reactions

  7. Ethanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol

    Ethanol is the systematic name defined by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry for a compound consisting of an alkyl group with two carbon atoms (prefix "eth-"), having a single bond between them (infix "-an-") and an attached −OH functional group (suffix "-ol").

  8. List of carboxylic acids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_carboxylic_acids

    The systematic IUPAC name is not always the preferred IUPAC name, for example, lactic acid is a common, and also the preferred, name for what systematic rules call 2-hydroxypropanoic acid. This list is ordered by the number of carbon atoms in a carboxylic acid.

  9. Acyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_chloride

    In organic chemistry, an acyl chloride (or acid chloride) is an organic compound with the functional group −C(=O)Cl. Their formula is usually written R−COCl, where R is a side chain. They are reactive derivatives of carboxylic acids (R−C(=O)OH). A specific example of an acyl chloride is acetyl chloride, CH 3 COCl.
