Application

Propyne (CH3C≡CH) can be used:
  • As a fuel for stoichiometric low-pressure flat-flames in isomer-specific combustion studies.
  • In the synthesis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons under various reaction conditions.
  • In the synthesis of phenylacetylenes.
  • In the selective synthesis of propene by catalytic hydrogenation using Pt/Al2O3 catalyst.

General description

Propyne (methylacetylene) is commonly used in gas welding.

Crossed molecular beams experiments have been utilized to investigate the reaction dynamics between two closed shell species, i.e. the reactions of tricarbon molecules, C(3)(X(1)Sigma(g)(+)), with allene (H(2)CCCH(2); X(1)A(1)), and with methylacetylene (CH(3)CCH; X(1)A(1)). Our investigations indicated that both these reactions
