Decylbenzene

Description:
Decylbenzene, with the CAS number 104-72-3, is an organic compound classified as an alkylbenzene. It consists of a decyl group (a straight-chain alkane with ten carbon atoms) attached to a benzene ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. Decylbenzene is hydrophobic and insoluble in water, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. It has a relatively high boiling point and low volatility, making it stable under standard conditions. Decylbenzene is primarily used as a solvent and as an intermediate in the production of surfactants and detergents. Additionally, it can serve as a component in various formulations, including lubricants and plasticizers. Due to its structure, decylbenzene can exhibit properties such as good thermal stability and resistance to oxidation. However, like many aromatic compounds, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal.
