CAS 1070-87-7: 2,2,4,4-Tetramethylpentane

Description: 2,2,4,4-Tetramethylpentane is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C10H22. It is characterized by its highly branched structure, which contributes to its low reactivity and high stability compared to straight-chain alkanes. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its relatively high boiling point and low volatility. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in organic synthesis. Due to its structure, 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpentane exhibits a high octane rating, making it a valuable additive in fuels to improve combustion efficiency and reduce knocking in engines. Additionally, it is often used in research and industrial applications as a reference standard in gas chromatography. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it can be flammable and may pose health risks upon prolonged exposure.
