CAS 107-01-7

2-Butene

Description:

2-Butene, with the CAS number 107-01-7, is an alkene with the molecular formula C4H8. It exists in two geometric isomers: cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene, which differ in the spatial arrangement of their substituents around the double bond. This compound is a colorless gas at room temperature and has a slightly sweet odor. 2-Butene is flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air, necessitating careful handling. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is primarily used in the production of various chemicals, including butanol and other intermediates in the petrochemical industry. Additionally, it can undergo reactions typical of alkenes, such as hydrogenation, polymerization, and halogenation. Due to its unsaturated nature, 2-butene can participate in addition reactions, making it a valuable building block in organic synthesis. Safety precautions are essential when working with this substance, as it can pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact.
