| oxepins | Compounds based on a 7-membered heterocyclic ring including an oxygen. They can be considered a medium ring ether. A natural source is the MONTANOA plant genus. Some dibenzo-dioxepins, called depsidones, are found in GARCINIA plants. |
| benzene oxide | RN given refers to parent cpd |
| 2-benzoquinone | reacts with methionines of RNAase at pH 1; reagent for determining conformational differences in related proteins |
| benzene | Toxic, volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbon byproduct of coal distillation. It is used as an industrial solvent in paints, varnishes, lacquer thinners, gasoline, etc. Benzene causes central nervous system damage acutely and bone marrow damage chronically and is carcinogenic. It was formerly used as parasiticide. |
| catechol | RN given refers to unlabeled parent cpd |
| 5,6-dihydroxycyclohexa-1,3-diene | RN given refers to cpd without isomeric designation; structure given in first source |
