 |  | (E)-2-Octenal Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid |  | Uses | trans-2-Octenal is one of the probable major contributors to the Californian long-grain cooked rice odor. |  | Definition | ChEBI: The (E)-isomer of oct-2-enal. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 51, p. 2607, 1986 DOI: 10.1021/jo00363a043 Journal of the American Chemical Society, 93, p. 1724, 1971 DOI: 10.1021/ja00736a027 Tetrahedron, 39, p. 3207, 1983 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4020(01)91568-6 |  | General Description | The rate constant for the gas-phase reaction of the NO(3) radical with trans-2-octenal was studied using absolute rate method. The fungal volatile organic compound trans-2-octenal, caused locomotory defects and changes in green fluorescent protein (GFP) and antigen-labeled dopaminergic neurons in adult Drosophila melanogaster. |  | Safety Profile | Mutation data reported. Whenheated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating vapors. |
