Ten‑carbon compounds come in many forms. This short list shows a few examples to illustrate the variety of molecules that contain ten carbon atoms.

- Alkanes: decane and other ten‑carbon chains (saturated hydrocarbons)
- Cycloalkanes: cyclodecane, a ring made of ten carbons
- Alcohols: decanol, an alcohol with an OH group
- Aldehydes and ketones: decanal (aldehyde) and decanone (ketone)
- Acids: decanoic acid (a fatty acid)
- Other oxygen‑containing compounds: esters and ethers with ten carbons in total

This is just a sample; many other ten‑carbon structures exist.
