The addition can be promoted with base [1] (Favorskii reaction) or with Lewis acid catalysts. [2] 2-Methylbut-3-yn-2-ol is produced on an industrial scale as a precursor to terpenes and terpenoids. 2-Methylbut-3-yn-2-ol is an intermediate in this industrial route to geraniol. [3] 2-Methylbut-3-yn-2-ol also is used as a monoprotected version of ...
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.
An ynone structure. In organic chemistry, an ynone is an organic compound containing a ketone (>C=O) functional group and a C≡C triple bond. Many ynones are α,β-ynones, where the carbonyl and alkyne groups are conjugated. Capillin is a naturally occurring example. Some ynones are not conjugated.
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-Butyne is of interest to physical chemists because of its very low torsional barrier and the problem of determining that barrier using high-resolution infrared spectroscopy. Analysis of its spectrum [3] leads to a determination that the torsional barrier is only 6 cm −1 (1.2 × 10 −22 J or 72 J mol −1).
The structure of a conjugated enyne. An enyne is an organic compound containing a C=C double bond and a C≡C triple bond . [1] It is called a conjugated enyne when the double and triple bonds are conjugated. The term is a contraction of the terms alkene and alkyne. The simplest enyne is vinylacetylene. [2]
Another method of production involves the isomerization of 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol using CuO–ZnO as a catalyst. A mixture of 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol and 3-methylbut-2-en-1-ol may also be used. These starting materials are obtained from a reaction between isobutene and formaldehyde: [3] CH 3 CH 3 CCH 2 + CH 2 O → (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CHO
