trans-3-Methyl-2-hexenoic acid (TMHA) is an unsaturated short-chain fatty acid that occurs in sweat secreted by the axillary apocrine glands of Caucasians and some Asians. [1] Hexanoic acids such as TMHA have a hircine odor. Of the fatty acids contributing to Caucasian men's underarm odor, TMHA has the most prominent odor. [2]
Prehnitene is one of three isomers of tetramethylbenzene, the other two being isodurene (1,2,3,5-tetramethylbenzene) and durene (1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene). [1] It is a relatively easily oxidized benzene derivative, with E 1/2 of 2.0 V vs NHE.
In organic chemistry, hexene is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 6 H 12. The prefix "hex" is derived from the fact that there are 6 carbon atoms in the molecule, while the " -ene " suffix denotes that there is an alkene present—two carbon atoms are connected via a double bond .
The tetramethylbenzenes constitute a group of substances of aromatic hydrocarbons, which structure consists of a benzene ring with four methyl groups (–CH 3) as a substituent. [1] Through their different arrangement, they form three structural isomers with the molecular formula C 10 H 14. They also belong to the group of C 4-benzenes.
With 1-methyl-4-t-butylcyclohexene, oxymercuration yields only one product – still anti addition across the double bond – where water only attacks the more substituted carbon. The reason for anti addition across the double bond is to maximize orbital overlap of the lone pair of water and the empty orbital of the mercuronium ion on the ...
[2] [3] [4] Acyclic alkenes, with only one double bond and no other functional groups (also known as mono-enes ) form a homologous series of hydrocarbons with the general formula C n H 2 n with n being a >1 natural number (which is two hydrogens less than the corresponding alkane ).
3,3-Dimethylhexane is a colourless, odourless liquid, chemical compound in the family of hydrocarbons which has a formula of C 8 H 18. It is an isomer of octane , where two methylene hydrogens at the third position in a hexane molecule have been replaced with two methyl groups.
It undergoes deprotonation at C-3 and C-1 with butyl lithium: HC 2 C 4 H 9 + 2 BuLi → LiC 2 CH(Li)C 3 H 7 + 2 BuH. This reaction allows alkylation at the 3-position. [2] Catechol borane adds to 1-hexyne to give the 1-hexenyl borane. [3] 1-Hexyne reacts with diethyl fumarate to produce n-hexylsuccinic acid. [4]
