Benzenoid aromatics from renewable resources
Across
- 3. an organic compound that contains one or more benzene or equivalent heterocyclic rings: many such compounds have an agreeable odor
- 5. a skeletal structure designed to support or enclose something
- 9. In a chemical reaction or mechanism, any reacting species which is no longer starting material or reactant, and has not yet become product, and which is not a transition state
- 10. a physical transformation from one material or state to another
- 11. pertaining to nonaromatic hydrocarbon compounds in which the constituent carbon atoms can be straight-chain, branched chain, or cyclic, as in alicyclic compounds; saturated, as in the paraffins; or unsaturated, as in the olefins and alkynes
Down
- 1. Chemical compounds whose main feature is a long chain of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms
- 2. a chemical reaction in which a ferment causes an organic molecule to split into simpler substances, esp the anaerobic conversion of sugar to ethyl alcohol by yeast
- 4. the application of heat to chemical compounds in order to cause decomposition
- 6. any of a group of hydrated silicates of aluminum with alkali metals, commonly occurring as secondary minerals in cavities in basic volcanic rocks: used for their molecular sieve properties because they undergo dehydration with little or no change in crystal structure
- 7. a substance that causes or accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being affected
- 8. occurs when a reaction that can produce more than one product, prefers one product over another
