  2. Methylene group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylene_group

    The hexamethylene diamine molecule contains six methylene groups. A methylene group is any part of a molecule that consists of two hydrogen atoms bound to a carbon atom, which is connected to the remainder of the molecule by two single bonds. [1] The group may be represented as −CH 2 − or >CH 2, where the '>' denotes the two bonds.

    [15] [16] The term "methyl" was derived in about 1840 by back-formation from "methylene", and was then applied to describe "methyl alcohol" (which since 1892 is called "methanol"). Methyl is the IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry term for an alkane (or alkyl) molecule, using the prefix "meth-" to indicate the presence of a single carbon.

  4. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

    The carbon–hydrogen bending modes depend on the nature of the group: methyl groups show bands at 1450 cm −1 and 1375 cm −1, while methylene groups show bands at 1465 cm −1 and 1450 cm −1. [24] Carbon chains with more than four carbon atoms show a weak absorption at around 725 cm −1.

  6. Methine group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methine_group

    Methine or methylylidene (IUPAC) In organic chemistry, a methine group or methine bridge is a trivalent functional group =CH−, derived formally from methane.It consists of a carbon atom bound by two single bonds and one double bond, where one of the single bonds is to a hydrogen.

  7. Methylene (compound) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylene_(compound)

    The blue part of this diagram of a propene molecule is a methylidene group. A methylidene group is any part of a molecule that consists of a CH 2 = group. [7] The group may be represented as =CH 2, where the '=' denotes the double bond. In contrast, methylene is connected to the rest of the molecule by two single bonds. [8]

  8. Methylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylene

    Methylene may refer to: Methylene group or methylene bridge (CH 2 < or equivalently -CH 2-), a part of a molecule connected to the rest of the molecule by two single bonds. An older name for methylidene (=CH 2), a part of a molecule connected to another atom by a double bond. Methylene (compound) (CH 2), an organic compound.

  9. Methylene bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylene_bridge

    The methylene bridge (methanediyl group) In organic chemistry, a methylene bridge, methylene spacer, or methanediyl group is any part of a molecule with formula −CH 2 −; namely, a carbon atom bound to two hydrogen atoms and connected by single bonds to two other distinct atoms in the rest of the molecule.
