Seven?! Cycloheptane would have twice as many hydrogen atoms though

Closest thing would be toluene, but that has 8 hydrogen atoms

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah, it is impossible because cycloheptane has 14×H and every double bond causes 2 fewer hydrogen atoms so there cannot be 7
