Dipropargyl \Di`pro*par"gyl\, n. [Prefix di- + propargyl.]
(Chem.)
A pungent, mobile, volatile liquid, {C6H6}, produced
artificially from certain allyl derivatives. Though isomeric
with benzine, it is very different in its chemical relations.
Called also {dipropinyl}.
{Aromatic compound} (Chem.), one of a large class of organic
substances, as the oils of bitter almonds, wintergreen,
and turpentine, the balsams, camphors, etc., many of which
have an aromatic odor. They include many of the most
important of the carbon compounds and may all be derived
from the benzene group, {C6H6}. The term is extended also
to many of their derivatives.
{Aromatic vinegar}. See under {Vinegar}.
Benzene \Ben"zene\, n. [From {Benzoin}.] (Chem.)
A volatile, very inflammable liquid, {C6H6}, contained in the
naphtha produced by the destructive distillation of coal,
from which it is separated by fractional distillation. The
name is sometimes applied also to the impure commercial
product or benzole, and also, but rarely, to a similar mixed
product of petroleum.
{Benzene nucleus}, {Benzene ring} (Chem.), a closed chain or
ring, consisting of six carbon atoms, each with one
hydrogen atom attached, regarded as the type from which
the aromatic compounds are derived. This ring formula is
provisionally accepted as representing the probable
constitution of the benzene molecule, {C6H6}, and as the
type on which its derivatives are formed.
