Definition
manufacturing process in which one or more chemical compounds are created through a set of chemical reactions
Examples
- Benzene is produced by hydrodealkylation of toluene with hydrogen, yielding benzene and methane, and diphenyl as a by-product; Hydrogen chloride is produced by reacting chlorine and hydrogen in an exothermic process; Phthalic anhydride is synthesized by oxidizing ortho-xylene with oxygen at 320–400 °C, producing phthalic anhydride, water, and minor by-products like maleic anhydride and CO₂

Primitive Class
This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.
Primitive Rationale
This class is expected to remain primitive as modeling chemical reactions is outside of the scope.
