  "term": "Hydrocarbylidene groups",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "Divalent substituents made only of carbon and hydrogen, obtained when a single carbon of a hydrocarbon loses two hydrogen atoms and so attaches to the rest of the molecule by a double bond. Methylidene, CH2=, and ethylidene, CH3CH=, are examples. Alkylidene groups, derived from alkanes, form a subset of this class.",
