Used in the prepn of butadiene in lab ... Inorganic synth ...

/Cyclohexene/ is used as an intermediate for the production of cyclohexanol and cyclohexeneoxide, and as a specific solvent.

How it is made

Cyclohexene is prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol by thermal reaction of a ethylene-propylene-butadiene mixture.

Prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol at high temps over various catalysts.

In Japan, cyclohexene is synthesized in a closed system by catalytic hydrogenation of benzene, isolated by fractionation.
