Structure Discussion on Aliphates with Cheminformatic Calculations - General Recipe

Objective

Execute Structure Discussion on Aliphates with Cheminformatic Calculations workflow

Scientific Question: What is the procedure for Structure Discussion on Aliphates with Cheminformatic Calculations?

Inputs (Recipe Parameters)

input_data any

Input data for workflow

Example: data

Outputs (Expected Results)

result data

Workflow result

Procedure (Unit Operations: 3 Stages)

Stage 1 Analyze Linear Hexane (C6)

Hexane is the simplest linear alkane with 6 carbons

IN: input_data → OUT: stage_1_result

1

PROMPT: start with hexane (cccccc) - a simple 6-carbon linear alkane

I'll use RDKit to calculate molecular formula, weight, and Lipinski properties to establish a baseline for comparison

2

PROMPT: how does extending the chain to 10 carbons (decane) change the properties

I'll calculate the same properties for decane (CCCCCCCCCC) to see how chain length affects molecular weight and LogP

Stage 2 Analyze Branched Isomer (2,4-Dimethylpentane)

Branched alkanes have different physical properties than their linear isomers due to reduced surface contact and packing efficiency

IN: stage_1_result → OUT: stage_2_result

1

PROMPT: what about a branched structure? let's look at 2,4-dimethylpentane - a c7 isomer with two methyl branches

I'll analyze 2,4-dimethylpentane CC(C)CC(C)C to compare with linear structures

2

PROMPT: look at cyclohexane - a cyclic c6 structure

Cyclohexane C1CCCCC1 forms a ring, which means losing 2 hydrogens compared to hexane

Stage 3 Summary Comparison

Execute 1 operations

IN: stage_2_result → OUT: stage_3_result

1

PROMPT: can you summarize all four structures in a comparison table

I'll compile all the calculated properties into a single comparison table to highlight structure-property relationships
