| Summary: | A few theoretical and experimental studies have been done so far about the properties and the conformational analysis of alkenes as monomers and dimers. Deeper insights into the conformational analysis of monomers and dimers of alkenes and the relation with boiling point are done in this work. In low-lying cis-butene, there is no repulsive interaction between methyl groups but there is an attractive hydrogen-hydrogen bonding. In monomers of 1-alkenes, the most stable conformer has bent-inward geometry which favors the π bond interaction with methyl/methylene hydrogen/carbon atoms. Conversely, each alkene’s molecule in the corresponding most stable alkene’s dimer has a straight, zig-zag geometry. Two straight, zig-zag alkene’s molecules in the corresponding most stable dimer have only one type of intermolecular interaction (hydrogen-hydrogen bonding). As a consequence, very good linear relationships between a physical property (such as boiling point) and theoretical parameters are obtained. |
