  2. Cyclohexene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexene

    Cyclohexene is produced by the partial hydrogenation of benzene, a process developed by the Asahi Chemical company. [4] The main product of the process is cyclohexane because cyclohexene is more easily hydrogenated than benzene. In the laboratory, it can be prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol. [5] C 6 H 11 OH → C 6 H 10 + H 2 O

  3. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    A solvent (from the Latin solvō, "loosen, untie, solve") is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid, a gas, or a supercritical fluid. Water is a solvent for polar molecules, and the most common solvent used by living things; all the ions and proteins in a cell are ...

  4. Cyclohexylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexylamine

    Cyclohexylamine is used as an intermediate in synthesis of other organic compounds. It is the precursor to sulfenamide -based reagents used as accelerators for vulcanization. The amine itself is an effective corrosion inhibitor. It has been used as a flushing aid in the printing ink industry. [5]

  5. Chromic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromic_acid

    This kind of chromic acid may be used as a cleaning mixture for glass. Chromic acid may also refer to the molecular species, H2CrO4 of which the trioxide is the anhydride. Chromic acid features chromium in an oxidation state of +6 (and a valence of VI or 6). It is a strong and corrosive oxidising agent and a moderate carcinogen.

  6. Hydrophobic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobic_effect

    The hydrophobic effect is the observed tendency of nonpolar substances to aggregate in an aqueous solution and to be excluded by water. [1][2] The word hydrophobic literally means "water-fearing", and it describes the segregation of water and nonpolar substances, which maximizes the entropy of water and minimizes the area of contact between ...

  8. Cyclohexanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexanol

    Cyclohexanol is the organic compound with the formula HOCH (CH 2) 5. The molecule is related to cyclohexane by replacement of one hydrogen atom by a hydroxyl group. [4] This compound exists as a deliquescent colorless solid with a camphor-like odor, which, when very pure, melts near room temperature. Millions of tonnes are produced annually ...

  9. Cyclohexanone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexanone

    Cyclohexanone is produced by the oxidation of cyclohexane in air, typically using cobalt catalysts: [11]. C 6 H 12 + O 2 → (CH 2) 5 CO + H 2 O. This process forms cyclohexanol as a by-product, and this mixture, called "KA Oil" for ketone-alcohol oil, is the main feedstock for the production of adipic acid.
