  1,7-Octadiene $(C_8H_{14})$ is a light flammable organic compound.
  
  Researchers have used 1,7-octadiene to assist ethylene in a cross-enyne metathesis Diels–Alder reaction.
  
  Plasma polymerized 1,7-octadiene films deposited on silica can produce particles with tuned hydrophobicity.
  
  Known to be incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
