Cis-Cyclooctene is a cyclic alkene characterized by its eight-membered carbon ring and a double bond between two of the carbon atoms, specifically in the cis configuration, meaning that the substituents attached to the double-bonded carbons are on the same side of the ring. This structural arrangement contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, with a relatively low boiling point compared to larger cyclic alkenes. Cis-Cyclooctene is known for its reactivity, particularly in polymerization reactions, making it valuable in synthetic organic chemistry and materials science. It can undergo various reactions, including hydrogenation and epoxidation, and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of more complex organic compounds. Additionally, it has applications in the production of specialty polymers and as a building block in organic synthesis. Its CAS number, 931-87-3, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
