These rings can be either five- or six-sided, and can contain different types of atoms. Heterocyclic compounds are often found in natural products, and are used in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Comparison_with_Carbocyclic_Compounds\"><\/span>Comparison with Carbocyclic Compounds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Carbocyclic compounds are molecules that contain only carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. They are structurally simple, and they are often used to make other molecules. They are also relatively stable, and they are not as reactive as other molecules.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nomenclature_of_Heterocyclic_Compounds\"><\/span>Nomenclature of Heterocyclic Compounds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Heterocyclic compounds are cyclic compounds that contain at least one atom other than carbon in the ring. The atom can be nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, or phosphorus. The ring can be either saturated or unsaturated.<\/p>\n<p>There are many different ways to name heterocyclic compounds. The most common way is to name the ring first, and then list the substituents. The substituents are listed alphabetically. For example, the compound cyclohexane-1,4-dione would be named:<\/p>\n<p>1. Ring: cyclohexane<br \/>\n2. Substituent: 1,4-dione<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nature_of_Heteroaromaticity\"><\/span>Nature of Heteroaromaticity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Heteroaromaticity is a type of aromaticity in which the ring contains at least one atom of a different element than carbon. This different atom can be nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, or phosphorus.
