Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
The boiling point of butenes ranges from -6.9°C to 3.71°C. This range is derived from the members of the butenes category: but-1-ene (CAS 106-98-9), 2-butene (CAS 107-01-7) and 2-methylpropene (CAS 115-11-7).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
- -2.1 °C
Additional information
The data reported are derived from the members of the butenes category and were obtained from the CRC Handbook (Lide 2008). This handbook is peer-reviewed and is considered reliable and suitable for use as a key study for this endpoint. The boiling point of butenes category therefore ranges from -6.9°C to 3.71°C. The data are supported by results from the Merck Handbook (O’Neil 2006), which is a peer reviewed handbook with results of -6.74°C for but-1-ene, 0.3°C to 3.73°C for but-2-ene and -6.9°C for 2-methylpropene.
The boiling point of 2-methylpropene is -6.9°C (Lide 2008). The boiling points of the cis and trans isomers of 2-butene ranged from 0.88°C to 3.71°C at pressure 1013 hPa (Lide 2008). The boiling point of but-1-ene is -6.26°C (Lide 2008). The mean of the boiling point values for the butenes is -2.1°C and this has been used to complete the 'key value for chemical safety assessment'.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
