Furan

Furan is a five-membered aromatic heterocyclic compound consisting of four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid. The furan ring system is found in nature, most notably in the structure of many sugars, such as fructose and the ribose and deoxyribose that form the backbone of RNA and DNA, respectively. Industrially, the furan derivative furfural is produced from agricultural byproducts like corn cobs and used as a solvent. A major use of furan is its conversion via hydrogenation to tetrahydrofuran (THF), a widely used industrial solvent for materials like PVC and in the production of polymers such as nylon.

It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents t
