About 2-Butene
2-Butene is an acyclic alkene with four carbon atoms. It is the simplest alkene exhibiting cis/trans-isomerism; that is, it exists as two geometric isomers cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene. It is a petrochemical, produced by the catalytic cracking of crude oil or the dimerization of ethylene.
