5-Undecene, (5E)-

Description:
5-Undecene, also known as (5E)-undecene, is an unsaturated hydrocarbon belonging to the alkene family. It features a carbon chain of eleven carbon atoms with a double bond located between the fifth and sixth carbon atoms, which is characteristic of its E (trans) configuration. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point compared to saturated hydrocarbons of similar molecular weight. 5-Undecene is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical applications. It is primarily utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of surfactants, lubricants, and other chemical intermediates. The presence of the double bond in its structure allows for further chemical reactivity, enabling it to participate in addition reactions. As with many alkenes, it is flammable and should be handled with care in a controlled environment to avoid potential hazards. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this substance.
