The molecular formula C 3 H 6 O may refer to: . Chemistry portal; Alcohols. Allyl alcohol or 2-propen-1-ol, CH 2 =CH-CH 2 OH, CAS number 107-18-6; cyclopropanol or cyclopropyl alcohol, cyclo (-CH 2-CH 2-HOHC-), CAS number 16545-68-9
Functional isomers are structural isomers which have different functional groups, resulting in significantly different chemical and physical properties. [ 11 ] An example is the pair propanal H 3 C–CH 2 –C(=O)-H and acetone H 3 C–C(=O)–CH 3 : the first has a –C(=O)H functional group, which makes it an aldehyde , whereas the second has ...

The English word "isomer" (/ ˈ aɪ s əm ər /) is a back-formation from "isomeric", [2] which was borrowed through German isomerisch [3] from Swedish isomerisk; which in turn was coined from Greek ἰσόμερoς isómeros, with roots isos = "equal", méros = "part". [4] Two broad types of isomers
Propylene oxide is an acutely toxic and carcinogenic organic compound with the molecular formula C 3 H 6 O. This colourless volatile liquid with an odour similar to ether, is produced on a large scale industrially.
For example, in living organisms, the open-chain isomer of glucose usually exists only transiently, in small amounts; D-glucose is the usual isomer; and L-glucose is rare. Straight-chain molecules are often not literally straight, in the sense that their bond angles are often not 180°, but the name reflects that they are schematically straight.
In organic chemistry, functionality is often used as a synonym for functional group. For example, a hydroxyl group can also be called a HO-function. [1] [2] Functionalisation means the introduction of functional groups, for example the functionalisation of a surface [3] (e.g. silanization for the specific modification of the adhesion of a surface)
