Although addition of a hydrogen halide to an alkene is stereoselective, the symmetrical structure of 2-butene prevents an anti-Marknikov product from forming due to both sides of the double bond having the same stability. In addition, 2-chlorobutane can be synthesized in a substitution reaction by reacting 2-butanol with hydrochloric acid.
Many organochlorine compounds have been isolated from natural sources ranging from bacteria to humans. [3] [4] Chlorinated organic compounds are found in nearly every class of biomolecules and natural products including alkaloids, terpenes, amino acids, flavonoids, steroids, and fatty acids.
Carboxylic acids are organic acids characterized by a carboxyl (-COOH) functional group. The naming of these compounds is governed by IUPAC nomenclature, which ensures systematic and consistent naming of chemicals.
It can also be named by replacing the "-oic acid" of their corresponding carboxylic acids with "-carbonitrile." The prefix form is "cyano-." Functional class IUPAC nomenclature may also be used in the form of alkyl cyanides. For example, CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 C≡N is called pentanenitrile or butyl cyanide.

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.
tert-Amyl chloride (2-methyl-2-butyl chloride) is an alkyl chloride used for flavoring and odorizing. [2] At room temperature, it is a colorless liquid with an unpleasant odor. It is an isomer of 1-chloropentane ( n -amyl chloride).
