1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane

Description:
1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane is a cyclic alkane with the molecular formula C8H16. It features a cyclohexane ring with two methyl groups attached at the 1 and 3 positions, which introduces asymmetry and affects its physical properties. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic odor. It is relatively nonpolar, making it soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water. The presence of the methyl groups contributes to its lower boiling point compared to cyclohexane, as well as its increased volatility. 1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane is primarily used as a solvent and in organic synthesis. Its chemical stability allows it to undergo various reactions, including hydrogenation and substitution. Additionally, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and proper safety measures should be observed during its use in laboratory or industrial settings.
