1-Octadecene is a long-chain hydrocarbon and an alkene with the molecular formula CH2=CH(CH2)15CH3. It is one of many isomers of octadecene. Classified as an alpha-olefin, 1-octadecene is the longest alkene that is liquid at room temperature.[3][2]

Hydrosilation

[edit]

Treatment of 1-octadecene with trichlorosilane in the presence of platinum catalysts gives octadecyltrichlorosilane. Octadecene adds to hydrogen-terminated bulk silicon.[4]
