2-Butenamide, also known as (2E)-2-butenamide, is an organic compound characterized by its amide functional group attached to a butene backbone. It features a double bond between the second and third carbon atoms in the chain, which is in the E (trans) configuration, indicating that the highest priority substituents on either end of the double bond are on opposite sides. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the presence of the amide group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. 2-Butenamide is of interest in various chemical syntheses and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the double bond, making it susceptible to addition reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many amides, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
