  2. Alkene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkene

    Alkene. In organic chemistry, an alkene, or olefin, is a hydrocarbon containing a carbon –carbon double bond. [1] The double bond may be internal or in the terminal position. Terminal alkenes are also known as α-olefins. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) recommends using the name "alkene" only for acyclic ...

  3. 1-Octene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Octene

    1-Octene is an organic compound with a formula CH 2 CHC 6 H 13.The alkene is classified as a higher olefin and alpha-olefin, meaning that the double bond is located at the alpha (primary) position, endowing this compound with higher reactivity and thus useful chemical properties. 1-Octene is one of the important linear alpha olefins in industry.

  4. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    These differences can be very small, as in the case of the boiling point of straight-chain alkenes, such as pent-2-ene, which is 37 °C in the cis isomer and 36 °C in the trans isomer. [5] The differences between cis and trans isomers can be larger if polar bonds are present, as in the 1,2-dichloroethenes.

  5. Alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane

    Alkane. In organic chemistry, an alkane, or paraffin (a historical trivial name that also has other meanings), is an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon. In other words, an alkane consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a tree structure in which all the carbon–carbon bonds are single. [1] Alkanes have the general chemical formula CnH2n+2.

  6. Decene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decene

    Decene / d ɛ k iː n / is an organic compound with the chemical formula C 10 H 20. Decene contains a chain of ten carbon atoms with one double bond, making it an alkene. There are many isomers of decene depending on the position and geometry of the double bond. Dec-1-ene is the only isomer of industrial importance.

  7. Higher alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher_alkane

    Higher alkanes are alkanes having nine or more carbon atoms. Nonane is the lightest alkane to have a flash point above 25 °C, and is not classified as dangerously flammable. [according to whom?] The term higher alkanes is sometimes used literally as "alkanes with a higher number of carbon atoms". One definition distinguishes the higher alkanes ...

  8. 1-Octadecene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Octadecene

    Infobox references. 1-Octadecene is a long-chain hydrocarbon and an alkene with the molecular formula CH 2 =CH (CH 2) 15 CH 3. It is one of many isomers of octadecene. Classified as an alpha-olefin, 1-octadecene is the longest alkene that is liquid at room temperature. [3][2]
