Isoprenol, also known as 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol, is a hemiterpene alcohol. It is produced industrially as an intermediate to 3-methylbut-2-en-1-ol (prenol): global production in 2001 can be estimated as 6–13 thousand tons.
The branched isomers are 2-methylbut-1-ene, 3-methylbut-1-ene (isopentene), and 2-methylbut-2-ene (isoamylene). Isoamylene is one of the three main byproducts of deep catalytic cracking (DCC), which is very similar to the operation of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC).
The compound is used as a reactant in the synthesis of a number of compounds. Notably it is used to synthesize 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene, and is then converted to 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol and methyl tert-butyl ketone, better known as pinacolone. Pinacolone itself is then used in synthesis for number of pesticides.
Prenol, or 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol, is a natural alcohol. It is one of the most simple terpenoids . It is a clear colorless oil that is reasonably soluble in water and miscible with most common organic solvents.
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.
Prenylthiol or 3-methyl-2-butene-1-thiol is a chemical compound. It is one of a group of chemicals that give cannabis its characteristic "skunk-like" aroma. It is also present in lightstruck or "skunky" beer. [2] [3]
