| 1-methylcyclopropene | A member of the class of cyclopropenes that is cyclopropene in which the hydrogen at position 1 has been replaced by a methyl group. A gas at room temperture and pressure, it is a (synthetic) ethylene perception inhibitor and is used to prolong the life of cut and potted flowers, other ornamental plants, and fruit. | 1-methylcyclopropene |
| cyclohexene | A cycloalkene that is cylohexane with a single double bond. | cyclohexene |
| cyclopropene | A cycloalkene that consists of cyclopropane having a double bond in the ring. The parent of the class of cyclopropenes. | cyclopropene |
| hawkinsin | A cysteine derivative that is cysteine in which the thiol group is substituted by a [2-(carboxymethyl)-2,5-dihydroxycyclohex-3-en-1-yl]sulfanediyl group. Hawkinsinuria is an inherited disorder which is characterized by the inability to break down the amino acid tyrosine. This results in the finding of certain metabolites in the urine, such as hawkinsin. | hawkinsin |
| limonene | A monoterpene that is cyclohex-1-ene substituted by a methyl group at position 1 and a prop-1-en-2-yl group at position 4 respectively. | limonene |
