Contributing to Basketane

I will be adding to this article using peer-reviewed, secondary sources in hopes of expanding the content of this stub-rated page. Edits will be made in my sandbox before they are then added to the article itself. Rsvetlov (talk) 01:40, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Missing noun

Under the heading "Molecular chemistry", you can find the text fragment "This method is known as ring expansion where one part of two conjoined ringed are opened..."

The missing word probably follows "ringed". Nikevich 02:24, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Alkane?
