The "hex" prefix refers to its six carbons, while the "ane" ending indicates that its carbons are connected by single bonds. Hexane isomers are largely unreactive, and are frequently used as an inert solvent in organic reactions. They are also common constituents of gasoline. ==See also== * Cyclohexane ==External links== * [http://physchem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/HE/hexane.html Material Safety Data Sheet for Hexane] * http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/duke/chemical.pl?HEXANE * http://www.nsc.org/library/chemical/N-Hexane.htm Alkanes Solvents See other meanings of words starting from letter: HHA | HB | HC | HD | HE | HF | HG | HI | HJ | HK | HL | HM | HN | HO | HP | HR | HS | HT | HU | HW | HX | HY | HZ |Words begining with Hexane: Hexane |
