They are named using E-Z nomenclature, and one equivalent of hydrogen gas is required to reduce these compounds to alkanes.
Wilkinson's catalyst is used to hydrogenate these compounds, and the Ziegler-Natta catalyst is used to polymerize them. They are the starting material in the oxo process, and according to Zaitsev's rule, the more thermodynamically stable one will form in eliminations. They are named using E-Z nomenclature, and one equivalent of hydrogen gas is required to reduce these compounds to alkanes. Also known as olefins, these are, for 10 points, what unsaturated molecules that have at least one carbon-carbon double bond?
