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.
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.
tert-Amyl alcohol (TAA) or 2-methylbutan-2-ol (2M2B), is a branched pentanol. Historically, TAA has been used as an anesthetic [ 3 ] and more recently as a recreational drug . [ 4 ] TAA is mostly a positive allosteric modulator for GABA A receptors in the same way as ethanol . [ 5 ]
Butyric acid (/ ˈ b j uː t ɪ r ɪ k /; from Ancient Greek: βούτῡρον, meaning "butter"), also known under the systematic name butanoic acid, is a straight-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 COOH. It is an oily, colorless liquid with an unpleasant odor. Isobutyric acid (2-methylpropanoic acid) is an ...
Isobutane, also known as i-butane, 2-methylpropane or methylpropane, is a chemical compound with molecular formula HC(CH 3) 3. It is an isomer of butane . Isobutane is a colorless, odorless gas.
Lindgren oxidation is a selective method for oxidizing aldehydes to carboxylic acids. [1] The reaction is named after Bengt O. Lindgren. The oxidation takes place in water containing solvent mixtures under slightly acidic conditions (pH 3–5) with sodium chlorite as oxidizer.
For example, the relative rates of epoxidation increase upon methyl substitution of the alkene (the methyl groups increase the electron density of the double bond by hyperconjugation): ethylene (1, no methyl groups), propene (24, one methyl group), cis-2-butene (500, two methyl groups), 2-methyl-2-butene (6500, three methyl groups), 2,3 ...
Isobutanol (IUPAC nomenclature: 2-methylpropan-1-ol) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 OH (sometimes represented as i-BuOH). This colorless, flammable liquid with a characteristic smell is mainly used as a solvent either directly or as its esters.
