General description

2-Butene is an alkene. All-silica zeolite RUB-41, containing 8- and 10-membered rings, is reported to be capable of separating trans-2-butene and cis-2-butene from 1-butene. Asymmetric gydrozirconation of cis- and trans-2-butene is reported. Stereospecific addition of methylene to trans-2-butene is reported to afford trans-1,2dimethylcyclopropane while similar addition to cis-2-butene affords cis-1,2dimethylcyclopropane.

Adsorption and dehydrogenation processes of trans-2-butene molecule on the Pd(110) surface have been studied by density functional theory calculations. Different adsorption configurations of the reactant, the dehydrogenated product, and the most favorable reaction pathway have been determined. The calculated energy
