cyclohexaner
Cyclohexane is a saturated hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive odor, often described as similar to gasoline or benzene. As a cycloalkane, cyclohexane consists of a single ring of six carbon atoms, each bonded to two hydrogen atoms, forming a stable, non-aromatic structure. It is a significant compound in organic chemistry due to its role as a solvent and intermediate in various industrial processes.
Cyclohexane is commonly used as a solvent in the production of adhesives, paints, and coatings. It is
In its pure form, cyclohexane has a boiling point of 80.7°C (177.3°F) and a melting point of
Cyclohexane occurs naturally in small quantities in crude oil and is typically produced synthetically through the
