  2. 4-Pyrone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Pyrone

    4-Pyrone (γ-pyrone or pyran-4-one) is an unsaturated cyclic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 5 H 4 O 2.It is isomeric with 2-pyrone. Preparation [ edit ]

  3. Pyran - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyran

    In chemistry, pyran is a six-membered heterocyclic, non-aromatic ring, consisting of five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom and containing two double bonds. The molecular formula is C 5 H 6 O. There are two isomers of pyran that differ by the location of the double bonds.

  4. Neighbouring group participation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbouring_group...

    An aromatic ring can assist in the formation of a carbocationic intermediate called a phenonium ion by delocalising the positive charge. When the following tosylate reacts with acetic acid in solvolysis then rather than a simple S N 2 reaction forming B, a 48:48:4 mixture of A, B (which are enantiomers) and C+D was obtained.

  5. Kojic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kojic_acid

    It is a derivative of 4-pyrone that functions in nature as a chelation agent produced by several species of fungi, especially Aspergillus oryzae, which has the Japanese common name koji. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Kojic acid is a by-product in the fermentation process of malting rice, for use in the manufacturing of sake, the Japanese rice wine. [ 2 ]

  6. Tetrahydropyran - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahydropyran

    Tetrahydropyran (THP) is the organic compound consisting of a saturated six-membered ring containing five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. It is named by reference to pyran, which contains two double bonds, and may be produced from it by adding four hydrogens.

  7. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Some such structures may contain aromatic π-sextets, namely groups of six π-electrons localized in a benzene-like moiety and separated by adjacent rings through C–C bonds. An aromatic π-sextet can be represented by a circle, as in the case of the anthracene molecule (below). Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic ...

  8. Anomeric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomeric_effect

    The α- and β-anomers of D-glucopyranose.. In organic chemistry, the anomeric effect or Edward-Lemieux effect (after J. T. Edward and Raymond Lemieux) is a stereoelectronic effect that describes the tendency of heteroatomic substituents adjacent to the heteroatom in the ring in, e.g., tetrahydropyran to prefer the axial orientation instead of the less-hindered equatorial orientation that ...

  9. Simple aromatic ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_aromatic_ring

    Many simple aromatic rings have trivial names. They are usually found as substructures of more complex molecules ("substituted aromatics"). Typical simple aromatic compounds are benzene, indole, and pyridine. [1] [2] Simple aromatic rings can be heterocyclic if they contain non-carbon ring atoms, for example, oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur.
