  2. Isopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopentane

    In 1864–1865 two chemists tried to extract same hydrocarbons from the Pennsylvanian oil. Carl Schorlemmer noted "that a mere trace of the liquid boiled below 30°C", [ 6 ] but the first to properly separate isomers (and thus discover isopentane) was American chemist Cyrus Warren (1824–1891) slightly later, who measured the boiling point of ...

  3. 2,2-Dimethylbutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,2-Dimethylbutane

    2,2-Dimethylbutane, trivially known as neohexane at William Odling's 1876 suggestion, [4] is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 14 or (H 3 C-) 3-C-CH 2-CH 3. It is therefore an alkane , indeed the most compact and branched of the hexane isomers — the only one with a quaternary carbon and a butane (C 4 ) backbone.

  4. Penex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penex

    The Penex process is a continuous catalytic process used in the refining of crude oil. It isomerizes light naphtha (C 5 /C 6) into higher-octane, branched C 5 /C 6 molecules. It also reduces the concentration of benzene in the gasoline pool. [1] It was first used commercially in 1958. [2]

    Dimethylbutane (DMB) may refer to: 2,2-Dimethylbutane; 2,3-Dimethylbutane; See also. Dimethylbutanol This page was last edited on 1 April 2021, at ...

  6. 3,3-Dimethyl-1-butanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3,3-Dimethyl-1-butanol

    DMB inhibits microbial trimethylamine (TMA) formation in mice and in human feces, thereby reducing plasma trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) levels after choline or carnitine supplementation. [1]

  7. 2,3-Dimethylbutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,3-Dimethylbutane

    2,3-Dimethylbutane is an isomer of hexane. It has the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH(CH 3) 2. It is a colorless liquid which boils at 57.9 °C. References

  8. Neopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neopentane

    Neopentane, also called 2,2-dimethylpropane, is a double-branched-chain alkane with five carbon atoms. Neopentane is a flammable gas at room temperature and pressure which can condense into a highly volatile liquid on a cold day, in an ice bath, or when compressed to a higher pressure.

  9. DMDNB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMDNB

    DMDNB, or also DMNB, chemically 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane, is a volatile organic compound used as a detection taggant for explosives, mostly in the United States where it is virtually the only such taggant in use.
