CAS 15869-96-2: 4,5-DIMETHYLOCTANE

Description: 4,5-Dimethyloctane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. It consists of a straight-chain octane backbone with two methyl groups attached to the fourth and fifth carbon atoms. This structure contributes to its physical properties, such as a relatively high boiling point and low volatility compared to straight-chain alkanes of similar molecular weight. 4,5-Dimethyloctane is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular formula is C10H22, indicating it contains ten carbon atoms and twenty-two hydrogen atoms. The compound is primarily of interest in the petrochemical industry and may be used as a component in fuels or lubricants, where its branched structure can enhance certain performance characteristics. Additionally, like other alkanes, it is relatively stable and non-polar, making it less reactive under standard conditions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
