WHAT DOES CARBENE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Carbene

In chemistry, a carbene is a molecule containing a neutral carbon atom with a valency of two and two unshared valence electrons. The general formula is R--R' or R=C:. The term "carbene" may also refer to the specific compound H2C:, also called methylene, the parent hydride from which all other carbene compounds are formally derived. Carbenes are classified as either singlets or triplets depending upon their electronic structure. Most carbenes are very short lived, although persistent carbenes are known. One well studied carbene is Cl2C:, or dichlorocarbene, which can be generated in situ from chloroform and a strong base.

Definition of carbene in the English dictionary

The definition of carbene in the dictionary is a neutral divalent free radical, such as methylene: CH2.
