1-Iodo-3-methylbutane

Description:
1-Iodo-3-methylbutane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically an alkyl halide. It features a four-carbon chain with a methyl group and an iodine atom attached to the third carbon. This compound is characterized by its molecular formula C5H11I, indicating the presence of five carbon atoms, eleven hydrogen atoms, and one iodine atom. The iodine atom contributes to its reactivity, making it a suitable substrate for nucleophilic substitution reactions. 1-Iodo-3-methylbutane is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point compared to other haloalkanes due to the presence of the iodine atom, which increases molecular weight. Its solubility in organic solvents is notable, while it is less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as iodine-containing compounds can be hazardous.
