trans-2-Butene

Description:

Trans-2-butene is an alkene with the molecular formula C4H8, characterized by a double bond between the second and third carbon atoms in its chain. It is a geometric isomer of butene, specifically the trans isomer, meaning that the substituents on the double bond are on opposite sides, which influences its physical properties. Trans-2-butene is a colorless gas or liquid at room temperature and has a slightly sweet odor. It is less dense than water and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. The compound exhibits a boiling point that is lower than that of its cis counterpart due to reduced steric hindrance. Trans-2-butene is used in various industrial applications, including the production of synthetic rubber and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It can undergo reactions typical of alkenes, such as hydrogenation, halogenation, and polymerization. Safety considerations include its flammability and potential health effects upon inhalation or skin contact, necessitating appropriate handling measures.
