:Methylcyclohexane
Description:
Methylcyclohexane is a cyclic alkane with the molecular formula C7H14, characterized by a cyclohexane ring with a methyl group attached. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive odor, often described as sweet or similar to gasoline. Methylcyclohexane is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful as a solvent in various chemical processes. Its boiling point is higher than that of cyclohexane, and it has a lower density than water. The compound is primarily used in the production of chemicals, as a solvent in laboratories, and in the formulation of fuels. Methylcyclohexane is also a component in some gasoline blends, contributing to octane ratings. It is important to handle this substance with care due to its flammability and potential health effects upon inhalation or skin contact. As with many hydrocarbons, it can undergo combustion, producing carbon dioxide and water, and may participate in various chemical reactions typical of aliphatic compounds.
