butadiene
(redirected from 1,3-Butadiene)

   Also found in: Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.10 sec.
butadiene (byt'ədī`ēn), colorless, gaseous hydrocarbon. There are two structural isomers of butadiene; they differ in the location of the two carbon-carbon double bonds in the butadiene molecule. One (1,2-butadiene) has the formula CH2:C:CHCH3. The other (1,3-butadiene), often called simply butadiene, has the formula CH2:CHCH:CH2; it is used in the manufacture of synthetic rubber, latex paints, and nylon and is obtained chiefly by dehydrogenation of butane and butene obtained by cracking petroleum. Chloroprene chloroprene (klōr`əprēn') or 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene,

 are the 2-chloro- and 2-methyl-derivatives of 1,3-butadiene; they also are used in the synthesis of rubber.

This study includes what we believe to be the first measurements of 1,3-butadiene in smokers' and nonsmokers' breath.
Hydrogenated carboxylated nitrile butadiene robber (HXNBR) is formed by polymerizing a conjugated diene such as 1,3-butadiene, a nitrile such as acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile and an unsaturated carboxylic acid such as acrylic or methacrylic acid to produce a polymer with a C=C backbone and a random or statistical monomer distribution.
Species differences in the production and clearance of 1,3-butadiene metabolites: a mechanistic model indicates predominantly physiological, not biochemical, control.
