Conjugated double bond

CH = CH — CH = CH — are said to have conjugated double bonds and react somewhat differently from the other diolefins. For instance, bromine or hydrogen is often added so that a product of the type -CHBr-CH=CH-CHBr- is formed. Also, these hydrocarbons participate in the Diels-Alder reaction see diene reactions). They show a tendency to form rubber-like polymers. Hydrocarbons not falling into these two classes are said to have isolated double...

Many chemical compounds have been described in the Hterature as fluorescent, and since the 1950s intensive research has yielded many fluorescent compounds that provide a suitable whitening effect however, only a small number of these compounds have found practical uses. Collectively these materials are aromatic or heterocycHc compounds many of them contain condensed ring systems. An important feature of these compounds is the presence of an unintermpted chain of conjugated double bonds, the number of which is dependent on substituents as well as the planarity of the fluorescent part of the molecule. Almost all of these compounds ate derivatives of stilbene [588-59-0] or 4,4 -diaminostilbene biphenyl 5-membeted heterocycles such as triazoles, oxazoles, imidazoles, etc or 6-membeted heterocycles, eg, coumarins, naphthaUmide, t-triazine, etc. 

Peroxyesters, particularly those with a-hydrogens or conjugated double bonds, are susceptible to iaduced decomposition under certain conditions, but they are generally less susceptible than diacyl peroxides. Lower molecular weight peroxyesters that have some water solubiUty can be hydroly2ed. 

In disproportionation, rosin is heated over a catalyst to transfer hydrogen, yielding dehydro (5) and dihydro (8) resin acids. The dehydro acids are stabilized by the aromatic ring the dihydro acids contain only an isolated double bond in place of the less stable conjugated double bonds. 

Under favorable conditions, low molecular weight organics may polymerize on surface of adsorbent (dialkenes, 1-alkenes, alkynes, conjugated double-bond systems, and epoxides are especially susceptible to this behavior). 

The chemical reactivity of sorbic acid is determined by the conjugated double bonds and the carboxyl group. 

Conjugated Double Bonds. Sorbic acid is brominated faster than other olefinic acids (7). Reaction with hydrogen chloride gives predominately 5-chloro-3-hexenoic acid (8). 

Nerol, geraniol, and linalool, known as the rose alcohols, are found widely in nature. Nerol and geraniol have mild, sweet odors reminiscent of rose flowers. They are manufactured by the hydrochlorination of mycene at the conjugated double bonds when a copper catalyst is used (88,89). 

LB Films of Polymerizable Amphiphiles. Stxidies of LB films of polymerizable amphiphiles include simple olefinic amphiphiles, conjugated double bonds, dienes, and diacetylenes (4). In general, a monomeric ampbipbile can be spread and polymerization can be induced either at tbe air—water interface or after transfer to a soHd substrate. Tbe former polymerization results in a rigid layer tbat is difficult to transfer. 

Natamycin. Natamycin or pimaricin (2) is a polyene with only four conjugated double bonds. This tetraene is obtained from Streptomjces natalensis. Like the other polyenes, pimaricin induces release from cells with membranes containing 20—40 mol % ergosterol. This is also the ergosterol concentration in the membrane of Saccharomjces cerevisiae. 

Conjugated double bond systems usually undergo 1,4-addition. 

Since the discovery of 1,3-butadiene in the 19th century, it has grown into an extremely versatile and important industrial chemical (30). Its conjugated double bonds allow a large number of unique reactions at both the 1,2- and 1,4-positions. Many of these reactions produce large volumes of important industrial materials. 

Other Reactions. Due to the highly reactive conjugated double bonds, butadiene can undergo many reactions with transition metals to form organometaHic complexes. For instance, iron pentacarbonyl reacts with butadiene to produce the tricarbonyl iron complex (10) (226). This and many other organometaHic complexes have been covered (227). 

Cyclopentadiene contains conjugated double bonds and an active methylene group and can thus undergo a Diels-Alder diene addition reaction with almost any unsaturated compound, eg, olefins, acetylene, maleic anhydride, etc. The number of its derivatives is extensive only the reactions and derivatives considered most important are discussed. 

In addition to thermal polymerization, it is possible to polymerize CPD with inorganic haUdes as catalyst. With trichloroacetic acid as the catalyst, deeply colored, blue polymers that conduct electricity in nonpolar solvents such as benzene in the presence of acid can be obtained. The conductivity and color are caused by blocks of conjugated double bonds present in the polymers (20—21).
