2,6-DIMETHYLDECANE

Description:
2,6-Dimethyldecane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. Its molecular formula is C12H26, indicating it consists of twelve carbon atoms and twenty-six hydrogen atoms. This compound features two methyl groups attached to the sixth carbon of a straight-chain decane, contributing to its branched structure. 2,6-Dimethyldecane is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is typically insoluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature, but it is soluble in organic solvents. It has a relatively high boiling point compared to straight-chain alkanes of similar molecular weight, reflecting the influence of branching on boiling point elevation. The compound is flammable and should be handled with care in a controlled environment. Its applications may include use as a solvent, in fuel formulations, or as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data sheets should be consulted for specific handling and storage guidelines, as well as potential health hazards associated with exposure.
