Compounds (7)
Compound | Description |
methane | The simplest saturated hydrocarbon. It is a colorless, flammable gas, slightly soluble in water. It is one of the chief constituents of natural gas and is formed in the decomposition of organic matter. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) |
methyl coenzyme M | RN & N1 from 9th CI Form Index; RN given refers to parent cpd |
adenosine triphosphate | An adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter. |
coenzyme B | |
12-aza-13-carboxy-14-hydroxy-11-oxo-3,4-dithiapentadecanesulfonic acid 14-phosphate | involved in electron transport in methanogenic archaea; structure in first source |
3-bromopropanesulfonate | |
2-bromoethanesulfonate | |
