CAS 29342-44-7: Chlorodimethylhexane

Description: Chlorodimethylhexane, with the CAS number 29342-44-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of alkyl halides, specifically chlorinated hydrocarbons. It features a hexane backbone with two methyl groups and a chlorine atom substituent, which contributes to its chemical reactivity and properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is relatively non-polar, making it soluble in organic solvents but less soluble in water. Chlorodimethylhexane can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions, due to the presence of the chlorine atom. Its applications may include use as an intermediate in organic synthesis, in the production of other chemicals, or as a solvent in certain industrial processes. However, like many chlorinated compounds, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. Safety data sheets should be consulted for specific handling guidelines and potential hazards associated with this substance.
