Tributyl citrate classification
China Tributyl Citrate Manufacturers and Suppliers classify this product as an acyclic compound (open chain compound). Because the carbon atoms in the molecule of this compound connected in a chain and have no ring structure. It is neither a carbocyclic compound nor a heterocyclic compound. Therefore, it belongs to an aliphatic compound. This classification standard is based on the carbon skeleton structure of organic compounds.
Classification basis
The classification standards for tributyl citrate are as follows. Acyclic compounds (open chain compounds). The carbon atoms in the molecules of this type of compound connected in a chain. And these compounds have no ring structure, such as aliphatic compounds. Carbocyclic compounds: Include aromatic compounds and alicyclic compounds. Aromatic compounds contain alternating single and double bond ring structures (such as benzene ring structures). While alicyclic compounds are carbocyclic compounds that do not contain benzene ring structures. Heterocyclic compounds: Ring compounds composed of carbon atoms and other atoms (such as oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, etc.). For example: our product triethyl citrate, acetyl tributyl citrate, acetyl triethyl citrate, CAS No 77 89 4, CAS No 77 94 1, CAS No 77 93 0 and CAS No 77 90 7.
If classified according to functional groups, Tributyl Citrate (TBC) belongs to esters because it contains ester groups. Because it contains alkyl or alkyl chain structures similar to methane, this compound belongs to aliphatic compounds. This classification method is conducive to the production of tributyl citrate factories in China. The classification standards are as follows: hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon derivatives; aliphatic compounds and aromatic compounds; other categories: including halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, acids, esters.
There are various ways to classify organic compounds. These ways can be subdivided according to the number of carbon atoms, molecular structure and other methods.
