2-Buten-1-ol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

2-Buten-1-ol, the simplest alkene alcohol, contains two hydroxyl groups. When it reacts with hydrochloric acid, it forms crotyl chloride. This crotyl chloride further reacts with crotonaldehyde, resulting in the production of crotonal.

Definition

ChEBI: 2-Buten-1-ol is a primary alcohol.
