  3. Hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocarbon

    Ball-and-stick model of the methane molecule, CH 4.Methane is part of a homologous series known as the alkanes, which contain single bonds only.. In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon.

  4. Alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane

    In organic chemistry, an alkane, or paraffin (a historical trivial name that also has other meanings), is an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon. In other words, an alkane consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a tree structure in which all the carbon–carbon bonds are single. [1] Alkanes have the general chemical formula C n H 2n+2.

  5. Corey–House synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corey–House_synthesis

    The scope of the Corey-House synthesis is exceptionally broad, and a range of lithium diorganylcuprates (R 2 CuLi, R = 1°, 2°, or 3° alkyl, aryl, or alkenyl) and organyl (pseudo)halides (RX, R = methyl, benzylic, allylic, 1°, or cyclic 2° alkyl, aryl, or alkenyl and X = Br, I, OTs, or OTf; X = Cl is marginal) will undergo coupling as the nucleophilic and electrophilic coupling partners ...

  6. Saturated and unsaturated compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturated_and_unsaturated...

    Unsaturated compounds generally carry out typical addition reactions that are not possible with saturated compounds such as alkanes. A saturated organic compound has only single bonds between carbon atoms. An important class of saturated compounds are the alkanes. Many saturated compounds have functional groups, e.g., alcohols.

  7. Cracking (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    [citation needed] [8] The products produced in the reaction depend on the composition of the feed, the hydrocarbon-to-steam ratio, and on the cracking temperature and furnace residence time. Light hydrocarbon feeds such as ethane , LPGs or light naphtha give product streams rich in the lighter alkenes, including ethylene, propylene, and butadiene .

  8. 2-Methylheptane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methylheptane

    2-Methylheptane is a branched-chain alkane and an isomer of octane.It is an heptane molecule with a methyl group attached to its second atom. It is a flammable colorless liquid used as fuel.

  9. Open-chain compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-chain_compound

    [2] [3] Many of the simple molecules of organic chemistry, such as the alkanes and alkenes, have both linear and ring isomers, that is, both acyclic and cyclic. For those with 4 or more carbons, the linear forms can have straight-chain or branched-chain isomers.
