2,2,4-Trimethylheptane

Description:

2,2,4-Trimethylheptane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. It has the molecular formula C11H24 and is known for its high octane rating, making it a valuable component in gasoline formulations. This compound features a heptane backbone with three methyl groups attached at the 2 and 4 positions, contributing to its branched structure. As a colorless liquid at room temperature, it is relatively non-polar and exhibits low solubility in water, while being soluble in organic solvents. 2,2,4-Trimethylheptane is stable under normal conditions but can participate in combustion reactions, producing carbon dioxide and water. Its physical properties include a moderate boiling point and a low vapor pressure, which are typical for larger alkanes. Due to its structure, it has a lower tendency to form soot during combustion compared to straight-chain alkanes, making it an efficient fuel. Additionally, it is used in research and as a reference standard in octane rating tests.
