Members (8)

MemberDefinitionClass
chloroformA one-carbon compound that is methane in which three of the hydrogens are replaced by chlorines.chloroform
entacaponeA monocarboxylic acid amide that is N,N-diethylprop-2-enamide in which the hydrogen at position 2 is substituted by a cyano group and the hydrogen at the 3E position is substituted by a 3,4-dihydroxy-5-nitrophenyl group.entacapone
