|Section2= |Section8= }} Cyclooctane is a cycloalkane with the molecular formula (CH2)8.〔 It is a simple colourless hydrocarbon, but it is often a reference compound for saturated eight-membered ring compounds in general. == Conformation == The conformation of cyclooctane has been studied extensively using computational methods. Hendrickson noted that "cyclooctane is unquestionably the conformationally most complex cycloalkane owing to the existence of many conformers of comparable energy." The boat-chair conformation I is the most stable form.〔 This conformation was confirmed by Allinger and co-workers.〔 The crown conformation〔 II is slightly less stable. Among the many compounds exhibiting the crown conformation (structure II) is S8, elemental sulfur. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cyclooctane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
