Cycloheptene is a cyclic alkene characterized by a seven-membered carbon ring containing one double bond. Its molecular formula is C7H12, and it is classified as an unsaturated hydrocarbon. The presence of the double bond introduces reactivity, making cycloheptene a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature with a distinctive odor, and it is less dense than water. Cycloheptene is known for its relatively high strain due to the non-planar conformation of the ring, which can influence its reactivity and stability. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound can undergo various reactions typical of alkenes, such as hydrogenation, halogenation, and polymerization. Due to its unique structure, cycloheptene serves as a valuable building block in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules and can be utilized in the production of pharmaceuticals and other chemical products. Safety precautions should be observed when handling cycloheptene, as it can be flammable and may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.

<p>Cycloheptene was used in one-pot synthesis of 1,2/3-triols from the allylichydroperoxides catalyzed by zeolite-confined osmium(0) nanoclusters. It is a raw material in organic chemistry and a monomer in polymer synthesis. Copper (1) triflate catalyzes the photodimerization of the simple nonconjugate</p>
