A 3D model of ethyne , the simplest alkyne. In organic chemistry, an alkyne is an unsaturated hydrocarbon containing at least one carbon—carbon triple bond. [1] The simplest acyclic alkynes with only one triple bond and no other functional groups form a homologous series with the general chemical formula C n H 2n−2.
The hexynes are a subgroup from the group of alkynes. It consists of several isomeric compounds having the formula C 6 H 10. The linear and branched members are: 1-Hexyne (n-butylacetylene) 2-Hexyne (methylpropylacetylene) 3-Hexyne (diethylacetylene) 3-methylpent-1-yne; 4-methylpent-1-yne; 4-methylpent-2-yne; 3,3-dimethylbut-1-yne
In organic chemistry, hexene is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 6 H 12.The prefix "hex" is derived from the fact that there are 6 carbon atoms in the molecule, while the "-ene" suffix denotes that there is an alkene present—two carbon atoms are connected via a double bond.
Reaction scheme of the olefin metathesis – changing groups are colored. In organic chemistry, olefin metathesis is an organic reaction that entails the redistribution of fragments of alkenes (olefins) by the scission and regeneration of carbon-carbon double bonds.
3-Hexyne is the organic compound with the formula C 2 H 5 CCC 2 H 5. This colorless liquid is one of three isomeric hexynes. 3-Hexyne forms with 5-decyne, 4-octyne, and 2-butyne a series of symmetric alkynes. It is a reagent in organometallic chemistry.

[1]: 623 The most general form of saturated hydrocarbons, (whether linear or branched species, and whether with or without one or more rings) is C n H 2n+2(1-r), where r is the number of rings. Those with exactly one ring are the cycloalkanes. Saturated hydrocarbons are the basis of petroleum fuels and may be either linear or branched species ...
[3] To form the root of the IUPAC names for straight-chain alkenes, change the -an-infix of the parent to -en-. For example, CH 3-CH 3 is the alkane ethANe. The name of CH 2 =CH 2 is therefore ethENe. For straight-chain alkenes with 4 or more carbon atoms, that name does not completely identify the compound.
A cycloalkyne consists of a closed ring of carbon atoms containing one or more triple bonds. Cycloalkynes have a general formula C n H 2 n −4 . Because of the linear nature of the C−C≡C−C alkyne unit, cycloalkynes can be highly strained and can only exist when the number of carbon atoms in the ring is great enough to provide the ...
