1-Hexene (hex-1-ene) is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 12.It is an alkene that is classified in industry as higher olefin and an alpha-olefin, the latter term meaning that the double bond is located at the alpha (primary) position, endowing the compound with higher reactivity and thus useful chemical properties. 1-Hexene is an industrially significant linear alpha olefin.
3-Hexanone (ethyl propyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 12 O. It is a ketone used as a solvent and as a chemical intermediate. According to IFF, it was described as having Sweet, Fruity, Waxy, Grape organoleptic properties.
The hexyl derivative is common test substrate because it is conveniently volatile. It undergoes deprotonation at C-3 and C-1 with butyl lithium: HC 2 C 4 H 9 + 2 BuLi → LiC 2 CH(Li)C 3 H 7 + 2 BuH. This reaction allows alkylation at the 3-position. [2] Catechol borane adds to 1-hexyne to give the 1-hexenyl borane. [3]
3-Hexyne is the organic compound with the formula C 2 H 5 CCC 2 H 5. This colorless liquid is one of three isomeric hexynes. 3-Hexyne forms with 5-decyne, 4-octyne, and 2-butyne a series of symmetric alkynes. It is a reagent in organometallic chemistry. [1] Structure of the coordination complex NbCl 3 (dimethoxyethane)(3-hexyne). [2]
Thujene (or α-thujene) is a natural organic compound classified as a monoterpene. [1] It is found in the essential oils of a variety of plants, and contributes pungency to the flavor of some herbs such as Summer savory.
Hex-1-ene, a typical alpha-olefin. The blue numbers show the IUPAC numbering of the atoms in the backbone chain of the molecule. The red symbols show the common nomenclature labeling of the main chain atoms. The double bond of an alpha olefin is between the #1 and #2 (IUPAC) or α and β (common) carbon atoms.
