Piperylene or 1,3-pentadiene is an organic compound with the formula CH3−CH=CH−CH=CH2. It is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon. It is one of the five positional isomers of pentadiene. It is one of several industrially significant 1,3-dienes, but it has received much less attention than butadiene and isoprene.[2] It consists of two isomers, Z and E, but these are rarely distiguighed.

Synthesis and formation

The dominant route to piperylene is by steam cracking of naphtha]]. This makes up about 10% of the C5 stream.[3]

Other routes

Piperylene is a product of the decarboxylation of sorbic acid.[4]

Piperylene is obtained as a byproduct of ethylene production from crude oil, combustion of biomass, waste incineration and exhaust gases. It is used as a monomer in the manufacturing of plastics, adhesives and resins.[5]

Reactions

Piperylene behaves as a typical diene. It forms a sulfolene upon treatment with sulfur dioxide.[6] It participates in Ziegler-Natta polymerization.[7] It is converted to 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran by reaction with water. It undergoes hydrocyanation.[3]

Piperylene can be deprotonated using butyl lithium, providing lithium pentadienyl.[8]
