  2. But-2-ene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/But-2-ene

    But-2-ene is an acyclic alkene with four carbon atoms. It is the simplest alkene exhibiting cis/trans-isomerism (also known as (E/Z)-isomerism); that is, it exists as two geometric isomers cis-but-2-ene ((Z)-but-2-ene) and trans-but-2-ene ((E)-but-2-ene). It is a petrochemical, produced by the catalytic cracking of crude oil or the dimerization ...

  3. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    Because the cis–trans and E–Z systems compare different groups on the alkene, it is not strictly true that Z corresponds to cis and E corresponds to trans. For example, trans-2-chlorobut-2-ene (the two methyl groups, C1 and C4, on the but-2-ene backbone are trans to each other) is (Z)-2-chlorobut-2-ene (the chlorine and C4 are together ...

  4. 2-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Bromobutane

    2-Bromobutane is relatively stable, but is toxic and flammable. When treated with a strong base, it is prone to undergo an E2 reaction, which is a bimolecular elimination reaction, resulting in (predominantly) 2-butene, an alkene (double bond). 2-Bromobutane is an irritant, and harmful if ingested. It can irritate and burn skin and eyes.

  7. E–Z notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E–Z_notation

    Alitretinoin. For organic molecules with multiple double bonds, it is sometimes necessary to indicate the alkene location for each E or Z symbol. For example, the chemical name of alitretinoin is (2E,4E,6Z,8E)-3,7-dimethyl-9-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexenyl)nona-2,4,6,8-tetraenoic acid, indicating that the alkenes starting at positions 2, 4, and 8 are E while the one starting at position 6 is Z.

  8. 1-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Bromobutane

    Most 1-bromoalkanes are prepared by free-radical addition of hydrogen bromide to the 1-alkene. These conditions lead to the anti-Markovnikov addition, i.e. give the 1-bromo derivatives. [2] 1-Bromobutane can also be prepared from butanol by treatment with hydrobromic acid: [3] CH 3 (CH 2) 3 OH + HBr → CH 3 (CH 2) 3 Br + H 2 O

  9. Butenoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butenoic_acid

    2 –H (2-butenoic) or HO(O=)C – CH 2 – CH=CH –H (3-butenoic). All have the chemical formula C 3 H 5 COOH or C 4 H 6 O 2. These compounds are technically mono-unsaturated fatty acids, although some authors may exclude them for being too short. The three isomers are: crotonic acid (trans-2-butenoic or (2E)-but-2-enoic acid)
