Pentadecylbenzene

Description:
Pentadecylbenzene is an organic compound characterized by a long hydrophobic alkyl chain attached to a benzene ring. With the chemical formula C21H34, it features a pentadecyl group (a 15-carbon straight-chain alkyl group) bonded to the aromatic system, which contributes to its unique properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water due to its large hydrophobic portion, but it is soluble in organic solvents. Pentadecylbenzene exhibits hydrophobic characteristics, making it useful in various applications, including surfactants, lubricants, and as a potential additive in polymer formulations. Its structure allows for interesting interactions in both biological and chemical systems, particularly in the context of self-assembly and micelle formation. Additionally, the presence of the benzene ring provides stability and potential for further chemical modifications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
