2penten
2-pentene is an alkene with the chemical formula C5H10. It is a structural isomer of pentane, meaning it has the same molecular formula but a different arrangement of atoms. Specifically, 2-pentene features a double bond between the second and third carbon atoms in a five-carbon chain.
Due to the presence of the double bond, 2-pentene exhibits geometric isomerism. It exists as two stereoisomers:
2-pentene is a colorless liquid at room temperature and pressure. It is flammable and has a characteristic
Industrially, 2-pentene can be obtained from the fractional distillation of petroleum or through cracking processes. It
