Description

2-methyl-pent-4-en-2-ol is an organic compound that has a reactive benzyl group and hydroxyl group. It contains a carbonyl group, which means it is an aldehyde. The compound type is heterocyclic, meaning it has at least one ring with atoms other than carbon. 2-methyl-pent-4-en-2-ol has two isomers, the cis form and the trans form. The cis form has the hydroxyl group on the same side of the double bond as the methyl group, while the trans form has them on opposite sides. 2-methylpentanenitrile is made by dehydration of 2 methyl pentene hydrochloride in a reaction time of 8 hours using electrolysis. It can also be synthesized from 3 isoprene units and one methyl hydroxy unit through nucleophilic attack on benzaldehyde.
