cy·clo·al·kane (s

An alicyclic hydrocarbon with a saturated ring. Also called cycloparaffin.

cycloalkane [ˌsaɪkləʊˈælkeɪn]

(Chemistry / Elements & Compounds) any saturated hydrocarbon similar to an alkane but having a cyclic molecular structure and the general formula C_nH₂_n Also called cycloparaffin

cycloalkane (s

Any of various cyclic saturated hydrocarbons having the general formula C_nH_2n. Cycloalkanes are alkanes formed into a closed ring. They are one of the three main constituents of crude oil, the other two being alkanes and aromatic compounds. Also called naphthene.
