Clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor.
cis-2-Heptene (alkene) was used in the synthesis of the corresponding bis(10-phenoxathiiniumyl)alkane adduct.
ChEBI: 2-Heptene is an acyclic olefin.
The rate constants for the epoxidation of cis-2-heptene with meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (mCPBA) and [2-percarboxyethyl]-functionalized silica in different solvents were studied.
Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air produces carbon dioxide and water vapor.
Soluble in acetone, alcohol, benzene, chloroform, ether (Weast, 1986), and miscible with many
aliphatic hydrocarbons including hexane.
