Cyclodecane is a cyclic alkane with the molecular formula C10H18, characterized by a ring structure composed of ten carbon atoms. It is a colorless, flammable liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a distinctive odor. Cyclodecane is known for its relatively high boiling point compared to other smaller cycloalkanes, which is attributed to its larger molecular size and increased van der Waals forces. The substance is non-polar, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Cyclodecane has applications in organic synthesis and as a solvent in various chemical processes. Additionally, it is utilized in the field of materials science, particularly in the study of polymerization and as a model compound for understanding the properties of larger cyclic hydrocarbons. Its stability and relatively low reactivity under standard conditions make it a useful compound in laboratory settings. However, like many hydrocarbons, it should be handled with care due to its flammability and potential health hazards upon inhalation or skin contact.
