Cubane Molecules / Particles

Synonyms:

Cubane, cubane compounds, cubane-based drugs, octanitrocubane, tetranitrocubane, platonic carbon molecules, cubane-based molecules and cubylacetlyenes.

Designations:

Chemical Formula: C₈H₈

General Description:

A molecule consisting of 8 carbon atoms arranged at the corners of a cube plus single hydrogen atoms sprouting symmetrically from each carbon. The C-C-C bond angle is therefore 90 degrees rather than the 109.5 degrees customary in other hydrocarbon molecules. Solid cubane forms molecular crystals.
