Arene substitution pattern

Arene substitution patterns are part of organic chemistry IUPAC nomenclature and pinpoint the position of substituents other than hydrogen in relation to each other on an aromatic hydrocarbon.

See O-Xylene and Arene substitution pattern

Aromatic compound

Aromatic compounds or arenes usually refers to organic compounds "with a chemistry typified by benzene" and "cyclically conjugated." The word "aromatic" originates from the past grouping of molecules based on odor, before their general chemical properties were understood.

See O-Xylene and Aromatic compound

Atom

Atoms are the basic particles of the chemical elements.

See O-Xylene and Atom

Benzene

Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon. Benzene is a natural constituent of petroleum and is one of the elementary petrochemicals.

See O-Xylene and Benzene

Bromine

Bromine is a chemical element; it has symbol Br and atomic number 35.

Color

Color (American English) or colour (British and Commonwealth English) is the visual perception based on the electromagnetic spectrum.

See O-Xylene and Color

Debye

The debye (symbol: D) is a CGS unit (a non-SI metric unit) of electric dipole momentTwo equal and opposite charges separated by some distance constitute an electric dipole.

See O-Xylene and Debye

Formula

In science, a formula is a concise way of expressing information symbolically, as in a mathematical formula or a chemical formula.

See O-Xylene and Formula

Liquid

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a nearly constant volume independent of pressure.

See O-Xylene and Liquid

M-Xylene

m-Xylene (''meta''-xylene) is an aromatic hydrocarbon. O-Xylene and m-Xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.

See O-Xylene and M-Xylene

Methyl group

In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula (whereas normal methane has the formula). In formulas, the group is often abbreviated as Me.

Oil

An oil is any nonpolar chemical substance that is composed primarily of hydrocarbons and is hydrophobic (does not mix with water) and lipophilic (mixes with other oils).

See O-Xylene and Oil

Oral administration

P-Xylene

p-Xylene (''para''-xylene) is an aromatic hydrocarbon. O-Xylene and p-Xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.

Petroleum

Petroleum or crude oil, also referred to as simply oil, is a naturally occurring yellowish-black liquid mixture of mainly hydrocarbons, and is found in geological formations.

Phthalic anhydride

Phthalic anhydride is the organic compound with the formula C6H4(CO)2O.

Poise (unit)

The poise (symbol P) is the unit of dynamic viscosity (absolute viscosity) in the centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS).

See O-Xylene and Poise (unit)

Ring (chemistry)

In chemistry, a ring is an ambiguous term referring either to a simple cycle of atoms and bonds in a molecule or to a connected set of atoms and bonds in which every atom and bond is a member of a cycle (also called a ring system).

See O-Xylene and Ring (chemistry)

Royal Society of Chemistry

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) is a learned society and professional association in the United Kingdom with the goal of "advancing the chemical sciences".

Structural isomer

In chemistry, a structural isomer (or constitutional isomer in the IUPAC nomenclature) of a compound is another compound whose molecule has the same number of atoms of each element, but with logically distinct bonds between them.

See O-Xylene and Structural isomer

Substituent

In organic chemistry, a substituent is one or a group of atoms that replaces (one or more) atoms, thereby becoming a moiety in the resultant (new) molecule.

See O-Xylene and Substituent

Toluene

Toluene, also known as toluol, is a substituted aromatic hydrocarbon with the chemical formula, often abbreviated as, where Ph stands for phenyl group. O-Xylene and Toluene are Alkylbenzenes.

Xylene

In organic chemistry, xylene or xylol (IUPAC name: dimethylbenzene) are any of three organic compounds with the formula. O-Xylene and xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.
