How do you prepare isopentene through hydrogenation?

Answer:

To synthesiise isopentene by hydrogenation you will need to selectively hydrogenate isoprene.

Selective hydrogenation of di-olefines is a tricky process with limited numbers of licensors.

Normally isopentene is extracted from C5 raffinate.
