Petroleum hydrocarbons

·
OSTI ID:6532714
This monograph analyzes contemporary data on the composition, structure and formation of various petroleum hydrocarbons: the alkanes, cycloalkanes and arenes. Special attention is paid to biological markers, compounds that may have preserved the main structural features of the original biogenic molecules. Modern concepts of chemical classification of crude oils are reviewed with respect to the molecular mass distribution of biological markers, and the genesis and chemical evolution of petroleum hydrocarbons are discussed.
