MemberDefinitionClass
1,2-dimethoxyethaneA diether that is the 1,2-dimethyl ether of ethane-1,2-diol.1,2-dimethoxyethane
1,4-dioxaneA dioxane with oxygen atoms at positions 1 and 4.1,4-dioxane
2,2,4-trimethylpentaneAn alkane that consists of pentane bearing two methyl substituents at position 2 and a single methyl substituent at position 4.isooctane
3-methylpentaneAn alkane that is pentane which is substituted by a methyl group at position 3. It is used as a solvent in organic synthesis, as a lubricant and as a raw material for producing carbon black.3-methylpentane
benzeneA six-carbon aromatic annulene in which each carbon atom donates one of its two 2p electrons into a delocalised pi system. A toxic, flammable liquid byproduct of coal distillation, it is used as an industrial solvent. Benzene is a carcinogen that also damages bone marrow and the central nervous system.benzene
bromobenzeneThe simplest member of the class of bromobenzenes, that is benzene in which a single hydrogen has been substituted by a bromine. A liquid at room temperature (m.p. -30degreeC; b.p.760 156degreeC), it is used as a solvent, particularly for large-scale crystallisations, and for the introduction of phenyl groups in organic synthesis.bromobenzene
chloroformA one-carbon compound that is methane in which three of the hydrogens are replaced by chlorines.chloroform
cyclohexaneAn alicyclic hydrocarbon comprising a ring of six carbon atoms; the cyclic form of hexane, used as a raw material in the manufacture of nylon.cyclohexane
cyclopentaneA cycloalkane that consists of five carbons each bonded with two hydrogens above and below the plane. The parent of the class of cyclopentanes.cyclopentane
etherAn ether in which the oxygen atom is linked to two ethyl groups.diethyl ether
ethylene dichlorideA member of the class of chloroethanes substituted by two chloro groups at positions 1 and 2.1,2-dichloroethane
methyl tert-butyl etherAn ether having methyl and tert-butyl as the two alkyl components.methyl tert-butyl ether
n-heptaneA straight-chain alkane with seven carbon atoms. It has been found in Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi).heptane
n-hexadecaneA straight-chain alkane with 16 carbon atoms. It is a component of essential oil isolated from long pepper.hexadecane
n-hexaneAn unbranched alkane containing six carbon atoms.hexane
pentachloroethaneA member of the class of chloroethanes that is ethane in which five of the six hydrogens are replaced by chlorines. A non-flammable, high-boiling liquid (b.p. 161-162degreeC) with relative density 1.67 and an odour resembling that of chloroform, it is used as a solvent for oil and grease, in metal cleaning, and in the separation of coal from impurities.pentachloroethane
pentaneA straight chain alkane consisting of 5 carbon atoms.pentane
perflexaneA fluoroalkane that is hexane in which all of the hydrogens have been replaced by fluorines.perfluorohexane
piperidineAn azacycloalkane that is cyclohexane in which one of the carbons is replaced by a nitrogen. It is a metabolite of cadaverine, a polyamine found in the human intestine.piperidine
thiophenesA monocyclic heteroarene that is furan in which the oxygen atom is replaced by a sulfur.thiophene
tolueneThe simplest member of the class toluenes consisting of a benzene core which bears a single methyl substituent.toluene
