Rings, hexagonal

The crystalline structure of the most intreresting forms of zeolites is now well investigated. It involves the primary structural units in the form of tetrahedra T04 occupied either by Si or A1 atoms. The secondary units are constituted by the tetrahedra joined by their corners. Such units include 4, 5, 6, and 8-membered rings, hexagonal prisms, etc.

PPy inverse opal patterns (ordered two-dimensional rings, hexagonal or honeycomb monolayers) over wide areas are accomplished by using a colloidal template method. The templates are made ofpoly(styrene/sodium p-styrene sulphonate) latex particles that drive the opal structure upon modulation of their packing density, thus inducing a modulation of the polymer properties [166, 167]. 

Nitrogen is incorporated in a hexagonal ring having three double bonds. The compounds in this family are those which can give a basic character to petroleum products and are thus a poison to acid catalysts.

Properties. Under nitrogen pressure hexagonal boron nitride melts at about 3000°C but sublimes at about 2500°C at atmospheric pressure. Despite the high melting point, the substance is mechanically weak because of the relatively easy sliding of the sheets of rings past one another (3). The theoretical density is 2.27 g/mL and the resistivity is about 10 H-cm. 

The benzene ring has a fully symmetrical (Deh) planar hexagonal carbon framework. Heteroatom substitution upsets this symmetry, but except in certain special cases, as for instance the thiabenzenes , the planarity of the ring is preserved. Although it is known...
