The image depicts a structural diagram of furan, which is an organic compound. Furan consists of a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. - The diagram shows a pentagonal shape, representing the five-membered ring. - Four vertices of the pentagon illustrate carbon atoms, and the vertex with the red circle below indicates the oxygen atom. - Furan is known for its aromaticity, where the electron delocalization across the ring is significant. Furan is commonly used in organic synthesis and as a precursor to other specialized chemicals. Its structure is fundamental in heterocyclic chemistry, frequently discussed in educational contexts related to organic chemistry.
