1,7-Octadiene

<h2 id="dimethyloctadienes">Dimethyloctadienes</h2>
<p>Structurally related octadienes bearing two <a href="/facts/Methyl_group/fkM97EMD">methyl groups</a> are of commercial interest.  Such compounds are produced by pyrolysis of <a href="/facts/Pinane/5JYGBSFL">pinane</a>, which is abundantly available from <a href="/facts/Terpentine/ME2Lgu0K">terpentine</a> or related wood-derived chemicals.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a>

<h2 id="research">Research</h2>
<p>The diene has also been the subject of many research papers.  For example, with <a href="/facts/Ethylene/QMNBYLYn">ethylene</a> it undergoes a cross-<a href="/facts/Enyne_metathesis/KLIUKpSU">enyne metathesis</a> <a href="/facts/Diels%E2%80%93Alder_reaction/zc6dVpKl">Diels–Alder reaction</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3"><sup>3</sup></a>  It undergoes ring-closing metathesis to give <a href="/facts/Cyclooctene/paVFkQkT">cyclooctene</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a> <a href="/facts/Plasma_polymerization/4wlUfpK2">Plasma polymerized</a> 1,7-octadiene films deposited on <a href="/facts/Silica/A3WILp6J">silica</a> can produce particles with tuned <a href="/facts/Hydrophobic_silica/daQ5Bnjf">hydrophobicity</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a>
