3,3-Diethylpentane

Description:
3,3-Diethylpentane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. Its molecular formula is C11H24, indicating it consists of 11 carbon atoms and 24 hydrogen atoms. This compound features a pentane backbone with two ethyl groups attached to the third carbon atom, resulting in a highly branched structure. 3,3-Diethylpentane is a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a relatively low viscosity. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature typical of alkanes. The compound has a moderate boiling point and flash point, making it flammable under certain conditions. Its chemical stability allows it to resist reactions with acids and bases, although it can undergo combustion and other reactions typical of aliphatic hydrocarbons. 3,3-Diethylpentane is primarily used in research and industrial applications, including as a solvent or in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance due to its flammable properties.
