General description

cis-2-Hexene is one of the isomeric forms of hexene. It is obtained from 2-hexyne, via semihydrogenation in the presence of Pd78(phen) [phen = 1,10-Phenanthroline] on titanium dioxide in n-octane. cis-2-Hexene is formed as one of the primary product from the dimerization of propylene in the presence of a nickel oxide-silica-alumina catalyst. It undergoes isomerization/hydrosilylation reaction with phenyl silane in the presence of cobalt catalyst to afford 1-hexylphenylsilane.

Cationic lipo-oligomers containing unsaturated oleic acid are potent siRNA carriers based on electrostatic and hydrophobic lipo-polyplex formation and endosomal membrane destabilization. Lipo-oligomers can be produced by solid-phase-supported synthesis in sequence-defined form. However, the trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)-mediated removal of acid-labile protecting
