3,5-Dimethyloctane

Description:
3,5-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 third and fifth carbon atoms of an octane chain, contributing to its branched structure. As a member of the alkane family, 3,5-dimethyloctane is characterized by its non-polar nature, making it hydrophobic and insoluble in water, while being soluble in organic solvents. It typically exhibits a relatively high boiling point compared to straight-chain alkanes of similar molecular weight due to increased van der Waals forces arising from its branched structure. This compound is primarily used in research and industrial applications, including as a reference standard in gas chromatography. Additionally, it is of interest in studies related to fuel properties and combustion characteristics. Safety data indicates that, like other alkanes, it should be handled with care due to its flammability and potential health hazards upon inhalation or skin contact.
