  2. Cyclopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclopentane

    Cyclopentane is also used in the manufacture of synthetic resins and rubber adhesives. [citation needed] Cyclopentane is a minor component of automobile fuel, with its share in US gasoline varying between 0.2 and 1.6% in early 1990s [8] and 0.1 to 1.7% in 2011. [9] Its research and motor octane numbers are reported as 101 or 103 and 85 or 86 ...

  3. C5H10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C5H10

    C 5 H 10 is the molecular formula of 13 hydrocarbon isomers (represented by their CAS numbers on the chart). They can be divided into cycloalkanes and alkenes . Cycloalkanes

  4. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    In other words, a cycloalkane consists only of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a structure containing a single ring (possibly with side chains), and all of the carbon-carbon bonds are single. The larger cycloalkanes, with more than 20 carbon atoms are typically called cycloparaffins. All cycloalkanes are isomers of alkenes. [2]

  5. Heterocyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyclic_compound

    A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring(s). [1] Heterocyclic organic chemistry is the branch of organic chemistry dealing with the synthesis, properties, and applications of organic heterocycles .

  6. 1,2,3,4,5-Cyclopentanepentol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2,3,4,5-cyclopentanepentol

    1,2,3,4,5-Cyclopentanepentol, also named cyclopentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentol or 1,2,3,4,5-pentahydroxycyclopentane is a chemical compound with formula C 5 H 10 O 5 or (–CHOH–) 5, whose molecule consists of a ring of five carbon atoms (a cyclopentane skeleton), each connected to one hydrogen and one hydroxyl group. [1]

  7. Methylcyclopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylcyclopentane

    The C 6 core of methylcyclopentane is not perfectly planar and can pucker to alleviate stress in its structure. [7] The conversion of methylcyclopentane to benzene is a classic aromatization reaction, specifically a dehydroisomerization. This platinum (Pt)-catalyzed process is practiced on scale in the production of gasoline from petroleum.

  8. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    The molecule cannot be represented by one structure, but rather a resonance hybrid of different structures, such as with the two resonance structures of benzene. These molecules cannot be found in either one of these representations, with the longer single bonds in one location and the shorter double bond in another (See Theory below).

  9. Steroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steroid

    The D ring has a cyclopentane structure. When the two methyl groups and eight carbon side chains (at C-17, as shown for cholesterol) are present, the steroid is said to have a cholestane framework. The two common 5α and 5β stereoisomeric forms of steroids exist because of differences in the side of the largely planar ring system where the ...
