  2. 1-Butene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Butene

    1-Butene (IUPAC name: But-1-ene, also known as 1-butylene) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH=CH 2. It is a colorless gas. But-1-ene is an alkene easily condensed to give a colorless liquid. It is classified as a linear alpha-olefin (terminal alkene). [2] It is one of the isomers of butene (butylene). It is a precursor to ...

  3. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    The differences between cis and trans isomers can be larger if polar bonds are present, as in the 1,2-dichloroethenes. The cis isomer in this case has a boiling point of 60.3 °C, while the trans isomer has a boiling point of 47.5 °C. [6] In the cis isomer the two polar C–Cl bond dipole moments combine to give an overall molecular dipole, so ...

  4. Isobutylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutylene

    Isobutylene is not isolated from the olefin or refinery butene stream before the reaction, as separating the ethers from the remaining butenes is simpler. Isobutylene can also be produced in high purities by "back-cracking" MTBE or ETBE at high temperatures and then separating the isobutylene by distillation from methanol.

  5. Alkene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkene

    For example, of the isomers of butene, the two methyl groups of (Z)-but-2-ene (a.k.a. cis-2-butene) appear on the same side of the double bond, and in (E)-but-2-ene (a.k.a. trans-2-butene) the methyl groups appear on opposite sides. These two isomers of butene have distinct properties.

  6. Butene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butene

    Butene, also known as butylene, is an alkene with the formula C 4 H 8.The word butene may refer to any of the individual compounds. They are colourless gases that are present in crude oil as a minor constituent in quantities that are too small for viable extraction.

  7. Isomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomerization

    The compound with the formula (C 5 H 5) 2 Fe 2 (CO) 4 exists as three isomers in solution. In one isomer the CO ligands are terminal. When a pair of CO are bridging, cis and trans isomers are possible depending on the location of the C 5 H 5 groups. [7] Another example in organometallic chemistry is the linkage isomerization of ...

  8. Structural isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_isomer

    [5] [6] Examples of the latter are the enantiomers, whose molecules are mirror images of each other, and the cis and trans versions of 2-butene. Among the structural isomers, one can distinguish several classes including skeletal isomers, positional isomers (or regioisomers), functional isomers, tautomers, [7] and structural isotopomers. [8]
