Why is cyclohexene a valuable raw material in industry?

Label:chem

Topic
Cyclohexene possesses an active double bond and a six-membered ring structure.
Answer
Cyclohexene is an ideal raw material for synthesizing cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, and adipic acid, which are in high demand in the chemical fiber industry. It is also widely used in the production of fine chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, dyes, detergents, feed additives, and polyester.
