Neohexene is the hydrocarbon compound with the chemical formula (CH3)3CCH=CH2. It is a colorless liquid, with properties similar to other hexenes. It is a precursor to commercial synthetic musk perfumes.
Neohexene is prepared by ethenolysis of diisobutene, an example of a metathesis reaction: [1]
It is a building block to synthetic musks by its reaction with p-cymene. It is also used in the industrial preparation of terbinafine. [1]
In the study of C-H activation, neohexene is often used as a hydrogen acceptor. [2]
