transhex2ene
transhex2ene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H12. It is an alkene, characterized by the presence of a carbon-carbon double bond. Specifically, the name "transhex-2-ene" indicates a six-carbon chain with the double bond located between the second and third carbon atoms. The "trans" prefix denotes the stereochemistry around this double bond, meaning that the substituents on each carbon of the double bond are on opposite sides of the bond. This is in contrast to cis-hex-2-ene, where the substituents are on the same side.
Transhex-2-ene is a colorless liquid at room temperature and pressure. It is a relatively nonpolar molecule,
The production of transhex-2-ene can be achieved through various synthetic routes, often involving dehydration of alcohols
