Abstract
Cyclooctane is mainly used in the synthesis of cyclooctanone,
cyclooctanol, caprolactam and octanoic acid. At the same time, it can
also be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and a chemical
reagent. By discussing the resistance distance between any two points of
cyclooctane derivative Tn(C8), some invariants about resistance distance
are obtained, such as Kirchhoff index, multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff
index, and additive degree-Kirchhoff index. Topological index can help
scholars better understand some physical and chemical properties of
compounds, and we obtain the closed expressions of valency-based
topological indices for Tn(C8), such as ABC index, GA index, etc.
