2,2-Dimethylpentanamide

Description:

2,2-Dimethylpentanamide, with the CAS number 13146-36-6, is an organic compound belonging to the class of amides. It features a pentane backbone with two methyl groups attached to the second carbon, contributing to its branched structure. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and possesses a characteristic amide odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. The presence of the amide functional group imparts certain polar characteristics, influencing its reactivity and interactions with other substances. 2,2-Dimethylpentanamide can participate in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and amidation, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its physical and chemical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, are influenced by its molecular structure and the presence of functional groups. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
