Explore: Aliphatic Compounds

hydrocarbons (compounds composed solely of carbon and hydrogen) are divided into two classes: aromatic compounds and aliphatic compounds (/ˌælɪˈfætɪk/;

benzene rings. Some aliphatic compounds can undergo electrophilic substitution as well. In electrophilic substitution in aromatic compounds, an atom appended

organic chemistry includes hydrocarbons (compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen) as well as compounds based on carbon, but also containing other

modes exist capable of degrading chlorinated aliphatic compounds. Anaerobic reduction, oxidation of the compound, and cometabolism under aerobic conditions

categorized into three broad groups: aliphatic compounds, terpenes and phenolic compounds. Aliphatic compounds found in hardwoods include fatty acids

In organic chemistry, nitro compounds are organic compounds that contain one or more nitro functional groups (−NO2). The nitro group is one of the most

be reduced. Alkyl and aryl nitro compounds behave differently. Most useful is the reduction of aryl nitro compounds. The reduction of nitroaromatics is

the chemistry of organofluorine compounds, organic compounds that contain a carbon–fluorine bond. Organofluorine compounds find diverse applications ranging

Acyclic may refer to: In chemistry, a compound which is an open-chain compound, e.g. alkanes and acyclic aliphatic compounds In mathematics: A graph without
