  2. Cyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane

    Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used). Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon. [5] Cyclohexyl (C 6 H 11) is the alkyl substituent of cyclohexane and is ...

  3. Cyclohexane conformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane_conformation

    Cyclohexane is the most stable of the cycloalkanes, due to the stability of adapting to its chair conformer. [4] This conformer stability allows cyclohexane to be used as a standard in lab analyses. More specifically, cyclohexane is used as a standard for pharmaceutical reference in solvent analysis of pharmaceutical compounds and raw materials.

  4. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    3D structure 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.

  5. Rotamer - Wikipedia

    Cyclohexane conformations, including with chair and boat conformations among others. Cycloalkane conformations, including medium rings and macrocycles; Carbohydrate conformation, which includes cyclohexane conformations as well as other details. Allylic strain – energetics related to rotation about the single bond between an sp 2 carbon and ...

  6. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

    English: Cyclohexane chair flip (ring inversion) reaction. Structures of the significant conformations (A, B, C & D) of the reaction are shown & plotted against their ...

  8. Ring flip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flip

    Cyclohexane is a prototype for low-energy degenerate ring flipping. Two 1 H NMR signals should be observed in principle, corresponding to axial and equatorial protons. However, due to the cyclohexane chair flip, only one signal is seen for a solution of cyclohexane at room temperature, as the axial and equatorial proton rapidly interconvert ...

  9. Hexachlorocyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexachlorocyclohexane

    They have been used as models for analyzing the effects of different geometric positions of the large atoms with dipolar bonds on the stability of the cyclohexane conformation. [1] The isomers are poisonous, pesticidal, and persistent organic pollutants, to varying degrees. Hexachlorocyclohexane was dimerized to produce mirex, a banned pesticide.
