Pentene has six isomers: 1-pentene (RON = 90.9 and MON = 77.1 [57]), cis-2-pentene (unknown octane number), trans-2-pentene (RON = 94 and MON = 80 [57]), 2-methyl-1-butene (RON = 100.2 and MON = 81.9 [API]), 2- methyl-2-butene (RON = 97.3 and MON = 84.7 [58]), and 3- methyl-1-butene (unknown octane number) as shown in Figure 4.

These peaks are attributed to ethylene and higher oligomers (propylene, butene, pentene, hexene as well as a series of alkanes), which arise from hydrogen transfer to different positions along the polymer chain [16].
