Rename

[edit]

I propose that the record be renamed to (E)-3-Methyl-2-hexenoic acid as the term trans is generally accepted as not being appropriate for a trisubstituted alkene. The chemistds (talk) 12:22, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Argreed. It is not clear, why that name was chosen anyway, as the article(s) also speak of (E)-3-methyl-2-hexenoic acid Iridos (talk) 13:37, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
