Examining organic compounds, the relative intensity of the molecular ion peak diminishes with branching and with increasing mass in a homologous series.
By definition, cycles are excluded, so that the silanes comprise a homologous series of inorganic compounds with the general formula.
Such a series is called the homologous series, while its members are called homologs.
Hydrogen polyoxides belong to a homologous series of inorganic compounds in which the members differ by a constant relative molecular mass of 16.
The possible products include silane and/or higher molecules in the homologous series, a polymeric silicon hydride, or a silicic acid.
Related to silanes, is a homologous series of functional groups, side-chains or radicals with the general formula.
Compounds within a homologous series typically have a fixed set of functional groups that gives them similar chemical and physical properties.
In addition to these sucrose-based oligosaccharides, seeds often contain homologous series of soluble -galactosides that are based on a cyclitol (inositol).
