3-Ethyloctane

Description:

3-Ethyloctane, with the CAS number 5881-17-4, is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. It consists of a straight-chain octane backbone with an ethyl group attached to the third carbon atom. This structure contributes to its physical and chemical properties, including a relatively high boiling point and low volatility compared to shorter-chain hydrocarbons. 3-Ethyloctane is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular formula is C10H22, indicating it contains ten carbon atoms and twenty-two hydrogen atoms. As a hydrocarbon, it is non-polar and exhibits typical alkane characteristics, such as being flammable and having low reactivity under standard conditions. 3-Ethyloctane is primarily used in research and industrial applications, particularly in studies related to fuel properties and hydrocarbon behavior. Its presence in fuel mixtures can influence combustion characteristics, making it of interest in the field of energy and environmental chemistry.
