It can be produced by catalytic hydrogenation of benzene or by fractional distillation of petroleum and 90% of what is produced commercially is used in nylon production.
It can be produced by catalytic hydrogenation of benzene or by fractional distillation of petroleum and 90% of what is produced commercially is used in nylon production. It is a colorless liquid with an odor similar to that of chloroform or benzene and it has two major conformations, one involving the staggering of hydrogens and the other the eclipsing of some hydrogens on neighboring carbons and the presence of two flagpole hydrogens. FTP, name this hydrocarbon with the aforementioned "chair" and "boat" conformations, a cyclic alkane with chemical formula C6H12.
