Except where noted otherwise, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C, 100 kPa)Infobox references 1,2-Dimethylcyclopropane is a cycloalkane consisting of a cyclopropane ring and two methyl groups. It has two geometric isomers: (E-) and (Z-), depending on the position of its two methyl groups. As with other cyclopropanes, ring tension results in a relatively unstable compound.
1,2-Dimethylcyclopropane is 1 of 10 structural isomers (cycloalkanes and aliphatic alkenes) which share the general formula of C5H10. The others being cyclopentane, methylcyclobutane, 1,1-dimethylcyclopropane, ethylcyclopropane, 1-pentene, 2-pentene, 2-methyl-1-butene, 3-methyl-1-butene, and 2-methyl-2-butene.
