4-Methyl-1-pentene Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Propertiesclear colourless liquid
UsesOrganic synthesis, monomer for plastics used inautomobiles, electronic components, and laboratoryware.
Uses4-Methyl-1-pentene is used as a monomer for olefin polymerisation. The resulting polymer is poly(4-methyl-1-pentene). It can also be used to produce 1,2-diiodo-4-methyl-pentane.
General DescriptionColorless liquid.
Air & Water ReactionsHighly flammable. Water insoluble.
Reactivity ProfileThe unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as 4-Methyl-1-pentene, are generally much more reactive than the alkanes. Strong oxidizers may react vigorously with them. Reducing agents can react exothermically to release gaseous hydrogen. In the presence of various catalysts (such as acids) or initiators, compounds in this class can undergo very exothermic addition polymerization reactions.
HazardSame as for 2-methyl-1-pentene.
Health HazardHarmful if inhaled or swallowed. Vapor or mist is irritating to the eyes, mucous membrane and upper respiratory tract. Causes skin irritation. Symptoms of exposure may include burning sensation, coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting.
Fire HazardSpecial Hazards of Combustion Products: Vapors may travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flashback. Container explosion may occur under fire conditions. Forms explosive mixtures in air.
SourceCalifornia Phase II reformulated gasoline contained 4-methyl-1-pentene at a concentration of 300 mg/kg (Schauer et al., 2002).
Environmental fatePhotolytic. Atkinson and Carter (1984) reported a rate constant of 1.06 x 10-16 cm3/moleculesec for the reaction of 4-methyl-1-pentene in the atmosphere.
Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air yields carbon dioxide and water.
