  2. But-2-ene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/But-2-ene

    But-2-ene is an acyclic alkene with four carbon atoms. It is the simplest alkene exhibiting cis/trans-isomerism (also known as (E/Z)-isomerism); that is, it exists as two geometric isomers cis-but-2-ene ((Z)-but-2-ene) and trans-but-2-ene ((E)-but-2-ene). It is a petrochemical, produced by the catalytic cracking of crude oil or the dimerization ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crotyl_group

    A crotyl group is an organic functional group with the formula RCH 2 CH=CHCH 3. [1] Systematically, it is called a but-2-en-1-yl group and exhibits geometric isomerism, being either cis (Z) or trans (E). There are many simple compounds in which the crotyl group forms base carbon chain: crotyl alcohol, crotonaldehyde, crotonic acid, and crotyl ...

    2-methylprop-1-ene In the chemical structures above, the small blue numbers in the structure images are the numbering of the atoms in the main backbone chain of the molecules. Other organic compounds have the formula C 4 H 8 , namely cyclobutane and methylcyclopropane , but are not alkenes and do not fall under the name butene .

  6. Isobutylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobutylene

    Isobutylene (or 2-methylpropene) is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 C=CH 2. It is a four-carbon branched alkene (olefin), one of the four isomers of butylene . It is a colorless flammable gas, and is of considerable industrial value.

    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.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Structural isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_isomer

    If, in addition, the two carbons are different isotopes (say, 12 C and 13 C), there would be three distinct structural isotopomers, since 1-13 C-1,1-dideuteroethene would be different from 1-13 C-2,2-dideuteroethene. And, in both cases, the 1,2-dideutero structural isotopomer would occur as two stereoisotopomers, cis and trans.
