CAS 15869-87-1: 2,2-Dimethyloctane
Description:2,2-Dimethyloctane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. Its molecular formula is C10H22, indicating it consists of ten carbon atoms and twenty-two hydrogen atoms. This compound features two methyl groups attached to the second carbon of an octane chain, contributing to its branched structure. As a result, 2,2-dimethyloctane exhibits lower boiling and melting points compared to its straight-chain isomers, which is a characteristic of branched alkanes. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. The compound is primarily used in research and industrial applications, particularly in the study of fuel properties and hydrocarbon behavior. Its relatively high octane rating makes it of interest in the formulation of gasoline and other fuels. Additionally, like other alkanes, it is non-polar and exhibits typical alkane reactivity, primarily undergoing combustion and substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it can be flammable and may pose health risks upon prolonged exposure.
