1-Hexen (stress on the second syllable) is a petrol-like smelling, colorless liquid. It belongs to the group of alkenes (more precisely the hexenes ) with the empirical formula C 6 H 12 . This group forms a total of 18 isomers .

Occurrence

1-hexene is a component of petroleum cracking products .

properties

1-Hexene is a colorless liquid that boils at 63 ° C under normal pressure . According to Antoine, the vapor pressure function results from log 10 (P) = A− (B / (T + C)) (P in bar, T in K) with A = 3.99063, B = 1152.971 and C = −47.301 in the temperature range from 289 to 337 K. The liquid is almost insoluble in water. 1-hexene forms highly flammable vapor-air mixtures. The compound has a flash point of −26 ° C. The lower explosion limit (LEL) is 1.2% by volume. The ignition temperature is 255 ° C. The substance therefore falls into temperature class T3.

use

1-Hexene is used as a comonomer in the production of polyethylene (LLDPE) to produce short-chain branches and is used as a starting material for numerous chemical reactions (e.g. of linear aldehydes through oxo synthesis ).

safety instructions

Witches are very irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract on direct contact and in a gaseous state . Witches are narcotic in high doses. Hexen is slightly hazardous to water (WGK 1). Witches degreases the skin.
