CAS 591-76-4: 2-Methylhexane

Description: 2-Methylhexane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain isomer of heptane. Its molecular formula is C7H16, indicating it consists of seven carbon atoms and sixteen hydrogen atoms. This colorless liquid is characterized by its relatively low boiling point and high flammability, typical of hydrocarbons. 2-Methylhexane has a distinct, gasoline-like odor and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It is primarily used as a solvent and in the production of fuels and lubricants. The compound exhibits a moderate vapor pressure, and its density is slightly less than that of water. In terms of reactivity, 2-methylhexane is relatively stable under standard conditions but can undergo combustion and various reactions typical of alkanes, such as halogenation. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this substance due to its flammable nature and potential health hazards upon inhalation or skin contact. Overall, 2-methylhexane is an important compound in organic chemistry and industrial applications.
