'Hexene' is a higher olefin, or alkene with a formula C₆H₁₂. The "Hex" is derived from the fact that there are 6 Carbons in the molecule, while the "ene" suffix denotes that Carbons are connected via double bonds. There are several isomers of hexene, depending on the position of the double bond and the branching of the carbon chain. One of the most common industrially useful isomers is 1-hexene, an alpha-olefin.
