7-Methyltridecane

Description:
7-Methyltridecane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. It has a molecular formula of C14H30, indicating it consists of 14 carbon atoms and 30 hydrogen atoms. This compound features a methyl group attached to the seventh carbon of a straight-chain tridecane, which contributes to its branched structure. 7-Methyltridecane is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits low volatility and a relatively high boiling point compared to its straight-chain counterparts due to its larger molecular size and branching. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. This compound is of interest in various applications, including as a component in fuels and lubricants, and in the study of hydrocarbon behavior in different environments. Additionally, it may be used in research related to organic synthesis and the development of chemical products. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
