  2. Allylic rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allylic_rearrangement

    In the similar substitution of 1-chloro-3-methyl-2-butene, the secondary 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol is produced in a yield of 85%, while that for the primary 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol is 15%. Allylic shifts occur because the transition state is an allyl intermediate. In other respects they are similar to classical nucleophilic substitution, and admit ...

  3. Isopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopentane

    The traditional name isopentane was still retained in the 1993 IUPAC recommendations, [5] [6] but is no longer recommended according to the 2013 recommendations. [1] The preferred IUPAC name is the systematic name 2-methylbutane. An isopentyl group is a subset of the generic pentyl group. It has the chemical structure -CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3) 2.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    For example, there are two isomers of square planar Pt(NH 3) 2 Cl 2, as explained by Alfred Werner in 1893. The cis isomer, whose full name is cis -diamminedichloroplatinum(II), was shown in 1969 by Barnett Rosenberg to have antitumor activity, and is now a chemotherapy drug known by the short name cisplatin .

  6. 2-Methyl-2-butene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methyl-2-butene

    2-Methyl-2-butene, 2m2b, 2-methylbut-2-ene, beta-isoamylene, or Trimmethylethylene is an alkene hydrocarbon with the molecular formula C 5 H 10. Used as a free radical scavenger in trichloromethane (chloroform) and dichloromethane (methylene chloride). It is also used to scavenge hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in the Pinnick oxidation.

  7. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    If there are multiple functional groups of the same type, either prefixed or suffixed, the position numbers are ordered numerically (thus ethane-1,2-diol, not ethane-2,1-diol.) The N position indicator for amines and amides comes before "1", e.g., CH 3 CH(CH 3)CH 2 NH(CH 3) is N,2-dimethylpropanamine.

  8. Isobutylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutylene

    Isobutylene (or 2-methylpropene) is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 C=CH 2. It is a four-carbon branched alkene (olefin), one of the four isomers of butylene . It is a colorless flammable gas, and is of considerable industrial value.

  9. 2-Chlorobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Chlorobutane

    This is because 2-chlorobutane possesses two different sets of β-hydrogens at the first and third carbons respectively, resulting in 1-butene or 2-butene. It is important to note that as a secondary alkyl halide, both E2 and Sn2 reactions are equally likely when reacting with a substance that can act as both a base and a nucleophile.
