Product Information

• Name: trans-2-Methyl-1,3-pentadiene
• Synonyms: (E)-2-Methyl-1,3-pentadiene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Trans-2-methyl-1,3-pentadiene is a polymerized molecule that is derived from the β-unsaturated ketone. It has a molecular weight of 132.14 g/mol and an isolated yield of 10%. Trans-2-methyl-1,3-pentadiene has been shown to undergo cationic polymerization with lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) as the catalyst to form polymers. The two isomers are cis and trans and have different energy requirements for activation. This reaction can be done at room temperature in THF using potassium tetrachloroplatinate (KPtCl) as a catalyst. Trans-2-methyl-1,3 pentadiene can also be used for size exclusion chromatography in water or organic solvents such as cyclohexane or hexane.
