  2. 1-Butene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Butene

    1-Butene (IUPAC name: But-1-ene, also known as 1-butylene) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH=CH 2. It is a colorless gas. But-1-ene is an alkene easily condensed to give a colorless liquid. It is classified as a linear alpha-olefin (terminal alkene). [2] It is one of the isomers of butene (butylene). It is a precursor to ...

  3. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    The differences between cis and trans isomers can be larger if polar bonds are present, as in the 1,2-dichloroethenes. The cis isomer in this case has a boiling point of 60.3 °C, while the trans isomer has a boiling point of 47.5 °C. [6] In the cis isomer the two polar C–Cl bond dipole moments combine to give an overall molecular dipole, so ...

  4. Isomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomerization

    The compound with the formula (C 5 H 5) 2 Fe 2 (CO) 4 exists as three isomers in solution. In one isomer the CO ligands are terminal. When a pair of CO are bridging, cis and trans isomers are possible depending on the location of the C 5 H 5 groups. [7] Another example in organometallic chemistry is the linkage isomerization of ...

  5. Butene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butene

    Butene, also known as butylene, is an alkene with the formula C 4 H 8.The word butene may refer to any of the individual compounds. They are colourless gases that are present in crude oil as a minor constituent in quantities that are too small for viable extraction.

  6. Alkene - Wikipedia

    For example, of the isomers of butene, the two methyl groups of (Z)-but-2-ene (a.k.a. cis-2-butene) appear on the same side of the double bond, and in (E)-but-2-ene (a.k.a. trans-2-butene) the methyl groups appear on opposite sides. These two isomers of butene have distinct properties.

  7. 1,4-Dichlorobut-2-ene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,4-Dichlorobut-2-ene

    The first step is the liquid- or vapour-phase chlorination of butadiene to a mixture of 3,4-dichlorobut-1-ene and 1,4-dichlorobut-2-ene (both isomers). In the second step, the mixture of 1,4-dichlorobut-2-ene and 3,4-dichlorobut-1-ene is isomerized to 3,4-dichlorobut-1-ene by heating to temperatures of 60–120 °C in the presence of a catalyst.

  9. 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.
