12diiodobut1ene
12diiodobut1ene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H6I2. It is a derivative of butene, specifically a but-1-ene molecule where two iodine atoms are attached to the first carbon. The structure can be represented as CH2=C(I)CH2I. This molecule is a diiodoalkene, indicating the presence of two iodine atoms and a carbon-carbon double bond within its structure. Due to the presence of the double bond, it can undergo addition reactions characteristic of alkenes. The carbon-iodine bonds are polar, and the iodine atoms are relatively large, which can influence the compound's reactivity and physical properties. Information regarding its synthesis, specific physical properties, and common applications is not widely documented in readily accessible literature. As with many organoiodine compounds, it is likely to be sensitive to light and may decompose over time, potentially releasing iodine. Further research would be required to determine its precise stability, toxicity, and potential uses.
