In chemical nomenclature, nor is a prefix to name a structural analog that can be derived from a parent compound by the removal of one carbon atom along with the accompanying hydrogen. The nor-compound can be derived by demethylation or by removal of a methylenegroup, a CH group or a C atom. This includes the elimination of a methylene group in a cyclic parent compound, followed by ring contraction.
