CAS 1459-09-2
:Hexadecylbenzene
Description:
Hexadecylbenzene, with the CAS number 1459-09-2, is an organic compound characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain and a benzene ring. It belongs to the class of alkylbenzenes, where a hexadecyl group (a 16-carbon straight-chain alkyl group) is attached to a benzene ring. This structure imparts both hydrophobic and lipophilic properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a surfactant and in the formulation of detergents. Hexadecylbenzene is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature, and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its melting and boiling points are influenced by the length of the alkyl chain, which contributes to its physical properties. Additionally, hexadecylbenzene can undergo typical aromatic reactions, such as electrophilic substitution, due to the presence of the benzene ring. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may pose environmental hazards and potential health risks upon exposure.
