Going through old tweets is reminding me of old blog posts, so figured I would reshare a few. Every wondered why we call the positions on a cyclohexane ring 'axial' and 'equatorial'? Wonder no more #Chemsky #HistChem #HistSci! 👇
The ups and downs of cyclohexane
Cyclohexane is undoubtedly an iconic molecule. Many of us learned to draw it (with varying degrees of proficiency) very early on in our organic chemistry classes as we were introduced to chairs, bo…

Ordered cyclohexane, got methylamine. Someone at sigma epically mislabeled this.
.... And some drug lab out there is pissed off their meth isn't cooking.

Nylon and polyester are synthetic polymers made mainly from petrochemical feedstocks—chemicals derived from crude oil and natural gas. Refineries produce intermediate hydrocarbons such as benzene, cyclohexane, ethylene, and propylene, which are converted into polymer-building chemicals.

My answer to any difficult question from now on is "Classic BBC!"
Q) Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water, but cyclohexane or benzene (simple six-membered ring compounds) are insoluble. Explain.

I'm just proud to say that my brain calculated CYCLOHEXANE MELTS RUBBER YOU'RE WEARING RUBBER SHOES GET THE FUCK AWAY in a tiny fraction of a second upon impact so that it only took a .1-mm layer off the bottom.

wouldn't it make more sense to do something like bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-based? cyclohexane ring with a 2 carbon bridge in the 1,4-position to make 3 equal co-intersecting rings.

Sending my college- level science- studying son chemistry memes is my current favorite thing to do because I get replies like this:
"that is just not benzene. benzene has 3 pi bonds while that has none. this is simply cyclohexane"
"that is just not benzene. benzene has 3 pi bonds while that has none. this is simply cyclohexane"

The refreshing night breeze feels so good, and I'm feeling absolutely amazing!✨
Today, I received a wonderful present called "Ramune Bar" from Mi~suke-san in my room!
I was so happy! Thank you!
Also, Rightardia's Wordle post really cheered

The first intermolecular lithium eta-2-alkene complexes have been reported in @jacs.acspublications.org.
The alkene ligands are displaced in cyclohexane to give the first intermolecular Li-alkane complex.

My guess : en bas, du sulfate de cuivre dans l’eau. En haut, du diiode dans le cyclohexane.

The molecules resemble supersized versions of cyclobutene, among others.
Dihydropyrazine-embedded macrocycles behave like supersized cycloalkanes
Giant molecular rings that mimic the puckered shapes of cyclobutane, cyclopentane and cyclohexane could offer new insights into conformational dynamics

Following alkyl conformations comes a #ChemEd #Chemistry #ChemSky summary on cyclohexane conformations. A popular topic at UG. Cyclohexane is boring (joke?) but rings with 6 sp3 hybridized atoms are interesting & this conformation can be used to predict the stereoselectivity of reactions. Enjoy.
