cis-3-Hexenal, also known as (Z)-3-hexenal and leaf aldehyde, is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH=CHCH 2 CHO. It is classified as an unsaturated aldehyde . It is a colorless liquid and an aroma compound with an intense odor of freshly cut grass and leaves .
cis-3-Hexen-1-ol, also known as (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol and leaf alcohol, is a colorless oily liquid with an intense grassy-green odor of freshly cut green grass and leaves. It is produced in small amounts by most plants and it acts as an attractant to many predatory insects .
Very often, cis–trans stereoisomers contain double bonds or ring structures. In both cases the rotation of bonds is restricted or prevented. [4] When the substituent groups are oriented in the same direction, the diastereomer is referred to as cis, whereas when the substituents are oriented in opposing directions, the diastereomer is referred to as trans.

In organic chemistry, hexene is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 6 H 12. The prefix "hex" is derived from the fact that there are 6 carbon atoms in the molecule, while the " -ene " suffix denotes that there is an alkene present—two carbon atoms are connected via a double bond .
In larger rings (8 or more atoms), cis–trans isomerism of the double bond may occur. This stability pattern forms part of the origin of Bredt's rule , the observation that alkenes do not form at the bridgehead of many types of bridged ring systems because the alkene would necessarily be trans in one of the rings.
