  3. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    A Newman projection is a drawing that helps visualize the 3-dimensional structure of a molecule. [1] This projection most commonly sights down a carbon-carbon bond, making it a very useful way to visualize the stereochemistry of alkanes.

  4. Alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane

    CO 2 + 4 H 2 → CH 4 + 2 H 2 O. It is probable that our current deposits of natural gas were formed in a similar way. [37] Certain types of bacteria can metabolize alkanes: they prefer even-numbered carbon chains as they are easier to degrade than odd-numbered chains. [38] Alkanes play a negligible role in higher organisms, with rare exception.

  5. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    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).

  6. Methyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula CH 3 (whereas normal methane has the formula CH 4). In formulas, the group is often abbreviated as Me. This hydrocarbon group occurs in many organic compounds. It is a very stable group in ...

  7. 2,4-Dimethylpentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,4-Dimethylpentane

    2,4-Dimethylpentane is an alkane with the chemical formula [(H 3 C) 2 CH] 2 CH 2. This colorless hydrocarbon is produced in large quantities in oil refineries. It results from the alkylation of isobutane by propylene. [1] Often referred to as "alkylate", it is blended with other gasoline components to give a high octane fuel.
