What are the family of organic compounds soluble in organic solvents but not in water?

The family of organic compounds that are soluble in organic solvents but not in water includes nonpolar compounds such as hydrocarbons (alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes), lipids (fats and oils), and many aromatic compounds. These substances generally have low polarity and do not engage in hydrogen bonding with water, making them hydrophobic. Other examples include certain esters, ethers, and chlorinated hydrocarbons. Their solubility in organic solvents is due to similar nonpolar interactions.
