1,7-Octadiene, 97%
Description
1,7-Octadiene is used in organic synthesis. It is also used to study and assess the structure and reaction rate in olefin ring-closing metathesis of a series of simple dienes. Further, it is used in a study to investigate micropatterned surfaces prepared by plasma polymerization. It acts as a crosslinker as well as a source of ethylene in cross-enyne metathesis (CEYM)-related reactions.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
