:1,8-Dichlorooctane
Description:
1,8-Dichlorooctane is an organic compound classified as a chlorinated alkane. It features a straight-chain structure with eight carbon atoms and two chlorine substituents located at the first and eighth positions of the carbon chain. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is characterized by its relatively high boiling point and low volatility compared to non-chlorinated hydrocarbons. 1,8-Dichlorooctane is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical applications. It is primarily utilized as an intermediate in organic synthesis and may also serve as a solvent or reagent in laboratory settings. Due to the presence of chlorine atoms, it exhibits properties such as increased density and potential reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety considerations are important when handling this compound, as chlorinated hydrocarbons can pose health risks and environmental concerns. Proper storage and disposal methods should be followed to mitigate any hazards associated with its use.
