  2. Cyclobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclobutane

    Cyclobutane is a cycloalkane and organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 4. Cyclobutane is a colourless gas and is commercially available as a liquefied gas. Derivatives of cyclobutane are called cyclobutanes. Cyclobutane itself is of no commercial or biological significance, but more complex derivatives are important in biology and ...

  3. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    Norbornane (also called bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane). Unsubstituted cycloalkanes that contain a single ring in their molecular structure are typically named by adding the prefix "cyclo" to the name of the corresponding linear alkane with the same number of carbon atoms in its chain as the cycloalkane has in its ring.

    For example, (CH 3) 2 CHCH 3, commonly known as isobutane, is treated as a propane chain with a methyl group bonded to the middle (2) carbon, and given the systematic name 2-methylpropane. However, although the name 2-methylpropane could be used, it is easier and more logical to call it simply methylpropane – the methyl group could not ...

  5. Cyclobutanone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclobutanone

    Cyclobutanone is an organic compound with molecular formula (CH 2) 3 CO. It is a four-membered cyclic ketone (cycloalkanone). It is a colorless volatile liquid at room temperature. Since cyclopropanone is highly sensitive, cyclobutanone is the smallest easily handled cyclic ketone.

  6. Isobutyraldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutyraldehyde

    Isobutyraldehyde is the chemical compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CHCHO. It is an aldehyde, isomeric with n-butyraldehyde (butanal). [1] Isobutyraldehyde is made, often as a side-product, by the hydroformylation of propene. Its odour is described as that of wet cereal or straw.

  8. Butyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butyl_group

    Butan-2-yl (sec-butyl) group is chiral. The carbon atom at position 2 is a stereocenter. It has four different groups attached: −H, −CH 3, −CH 2CH 3, and −R (the R group is not equal to those three groups). The names of the two chiral groups are: (2S)-butan-2-yl and (2R)-butan-2-yl.

  9. Prismanes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prismanes

    Chemically, it is a series of fused cyclobutane rings (a ladderane, with all-cis/all-syn geometry) that wraps around to join its ends and form a band, with cycloalkane edges. Their chemical formula is (C 2 H 2 ) n , where n is the number of cyclobutane sides (the size of the cycloalkane base), and that number also forms the basis for a system ...
