Methylcyclopentane

R. Bream, D. Watkin and A. Cowley

Abstract: Methylcyclopentane, C₆H₁₂, a liquid at room temperature, was studied as part of a project to develop a computer-controlled low-temperature crystal-growing device. A single crystal was obtained at 115 K. The ring has an envelope conformation, with a pseudo-equatorial methyl substituent on the flap atom.
