    Below is a list of the boiling and melting points of various alkenes with the corresponding alkane and alkyne analogues. ... Boiling point: −0.5: −6.2: 8.0 5 Name ...

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    Cycloalkane. Ball-and-stick model of cyclobutane. In organic chemistry, the cycloalkanes (also called naphthenes, but distinct from naphthalene) are the monocyclic saturated hydrocarbons. [1] In other words, a cycloalkane consists only of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a structure containing a single ring (possibly with side chains), and ...

  6. Cyclohexene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexene

    Cyclohexene is a hydrocarbon with the formula (CH 2) 4 C 2 H 2. It is an example of a cycloalkene. At room temperature, cyclohexene is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor. Among its uses, it is an intermediate in the commerical synthesis of nylon. [3]

  7. Octene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octene

    1-octene. Octene is an alkene with the formula C 8 H 16.Several isomers of octene are known, depending on the position and the geometry of the double bond in the carbon chain.. The simplest isomer is 1-octene, an alpha-olefin used primarily as a co-monomer in production of polyethylene via the solution polymerization process.

  8. Cyclooctene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclooctene

    Cyclooctene. Possible isomers of cyclooctene. Cyclooctene is the cycloalkene with a formula C. 8H. 14. Its molecule has a ring of 8 carbon atoms, connected by seven single bonds and one double bond. Cyclooctene is notable because it is the smallest cycloalkene that can exist stably as either the cis or trans stereoisomer, with cis -cyclooctene ...

  9. 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 ...
