4-Methyl-1-pentene

Description:
4-Methyl-1-pentene is an organic compound classified as an alkene, specifically a branched-chain olefin. Its molecular formula is C6H12, indicating it contains six carbon atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms. This compound features a double bond between the first and second carbon atoms, which is characteristic of alkenes, and a methyl group attached to the fourth carbon. 4-Methyl-1-pentene is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point, typical of small alkenes. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in addition reactions due to the presence of the double bond, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and industrial applications, including polymer production. The compound is also flammable and should be handled with care in a well-ventilated environment. Additionally, it has a distinct odor, which can be noticeable even at low concentrations. As with many alkenes, it can undergo polymerization, making it valuable in the production of plastics and other materials.
