1-Pentyne

1-Pentyne, or propylacetylene, is a terminal alkyne with the formula C₅H₈. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is, in fact, the smallest terminal alkyne that exists in a liquid state under these conditions. Being a terminal alkyne, it has a reactive hydrogen on the triple-bonded carbon, which makes it a useful substrate in various catalytic studies and organic synthesis reactions. It is an isomer of 2-pentyne, and the two can be distinguished by the position of the triple bond. 1-Pentyne is insoluble in water and is highly flammable, with a flash point of -20°C. It serves as a building block for creating more complex molecules. Explore searchable catalogue of hundreds of molecules, including details on how models were generated. NotesIf you happen to break something, use superglue to fix it. It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance
