I have a hand drawing of a chemical structure that I can't interpret. I have it saved as a PDF and as a bmp. Is there anyway I can search for the picture or something similar on the t'interweb? I have tried tin eye, but I don't want to do an origin search because there is no origin.
Thanks muchly.

LOL. Doh - why didn't I think of that?!

I believe it is a terpene, but it might not be and it is old (the drawing that is) - 1910.
Thanks again.

Still not home, and it has been (mumble, mumble) years since I remembered .... maybe a C13 structure (methyl ?? steroids ????) well out of my depth there though Organics where never my stronger points.

Just about to get a train but something like 1 methyl 3 ethyl methyl cyclohexene. Will have a better look when i get homeThere's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.0 -
Ok that was quite painful, had to go dig out an old text book. I am fairly confident the systematic name for this compound is 3-methyl 1-prop-1-en-2-yl cyclohexeneThere's no sense crying over every mistake.

Agree with BackOnTrack's systematic name.
It's an isomer of limonene (it has the propene at the 6-position) - citrus scent commonly used in perfumes.I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.0 -
Thank you clever people! Have a good weekend. xIf you have nothing constructive to say just move along.0
