CYCLOBUTENE, 1,3-BUTADIENE, AND 2-BUTYNE

CONTENTS

 

Cyclobutene (C4H6) is a molecule with 30 electrons and there are five compounds with the same chemical formula. Selected properties of the molecules are shown in Table 113.1.

The molecules each have large number of vibrational modes. 1,3-Butadiene (1,3-C4H6) has 24 modes and 2-butyne (2-C4H6) has 16 modes (Shimanouchi, 1972). According to Allan and Andric (1996) vibrations of similar type (local motion) tend to have similar ...
