3) 2 (C 2 H 5). Isopentane is a volatile and flammable liquid. It is one of three structural isomers with the molecular formula C 5 H 12, the others being pentane (n-pentane) and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane). Isopentane is commonly used in conjunction with liquid nitrogen to achieve a liquid bath temperature of −160 °C.
Calculations indicate that tri-tert-butylamine should be planar at nitrogen. Though arguably a more hindered molecule, the structurally analogous tri-tert-alkyl carbinol 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-t-butyl-pentane-3-ol (tri-tert-butylcarbinol, t Bu 3 COH), has been known for decades (prepared by Bartlett and coworkers in 1945).
A cycloalkyl group is derived from a cycloalkane by removal of a hydrogen atom from a ring and has the general formula −C n H 2n−1. [2] Typically an alkyl is a part of a larger molecule. In structural formulae , the symbol R is used to designate a generic (unspecified) alkyl group.
Pentyl is a five-carbon alkyl group or substituent with chemical formula-C 5 H 11.It is the substituent form of the alkane pentane.. In older literature, the common non-systematic name amyl was often used for the pentyl group.
Butan-2-yl (sec-butyl) group is chiral. The carbon atom at position 2 is a stereocenter. It has four different groups attached: −H, −CH 3, −CH 2 −CH 3, and −R (the R group is not equal to those three groups). The names of the two chiral groups are: (2S)-butan-2-yl and (2R)-butan-2-yl.
2-Methylpentane, trivially known as isohexane, is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14.It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the second carbon atom in a pentane chain.
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
Since the longest continuous chain in isobutane contains only three carbon atoms, the preferred IUPAC name is 2-methylpropane but the locant (2-) is typically omitted in general nomenclature as redundant; C2 is the only position on a propane chain where a methyl substituent can be located without altering the main chain and forming the ...
