Organic Chemicals
A broad class of substances containing carbon and its derivatives. Many of these chemicals will frequently contain hydrogen with or without oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and other elements. They exist in either carbon chain or carbon ring form.
Year introduced: 1998
Hydrocarbons, Cyclic
Organic compounds composed exclusively of carbon and hydrogen forming a closed ring that may be either alicyclic or aromatic.
Hydrocarbons, Aromatic
Organic compounds containing carbon and hydrogen in the form of an unsaturated, usually hexagonal ring structure. The compounds can be single ring, or double, triple, or multiple fused rings.
Hydrocarbons
Organic compounds that primarily contain carbon and hydrogen atoms with the carbon atoms forming a linear or circular structure.
Benzyl Compounds
Benzene derivatives that contain a benzyl group with the general formula Phenyl-CH2-R.
Year introduced: 1972(1971)
Benzyl Alcohols
Alcohols derived from the aryl radical (C6H5CH2-) and defined by C6H5CHOH. The concept includes derivatives with any substituents on the benzene ring.
Year introduced: 1991(1975)
Benzene Derivatives
Organic compounds derived from BENZENE.
Year introduced: 1968
Alcohols
