A chemical compound or functional group containing the furfuryl radical bonded to a double-bonded carbon structure.
From furfuryl + chemical suffix '-idene' or '-ylidene' (indicating a divalent radical with a double bond). This technical term arose in 20th-century synthetic chemistry.
The '-idene' suffix is chemistry's way of saying 'two-handed grabber'—this group has two attachment points, making it perfect for connecting molecules together in pharmaceutical and materials manufacturing.
