prop1ene
Propene, also known as propylene, is a colorless, flammable gas at room temperature and pressure. It is the simplest alkene with three carbon atoms and has the structural formula CH2=CH-CH3, featuring a terminal carbon–carbon double bond. Propene is a reactive monomer and a key building block in modern chemistry and materials science.
Industrial production and sources: Propene is largely produced during the refining of petroleum and processing of
Reactions and applications: The carbon–carbon double bond enables a wide range of addition reactions, including hydrogenation
Safety and handling: Propene is flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air. It is a volatile
