2,5,6-trimethyldecane

Description:
2,5,6-trimethyldecane is an organic compound classified as an alkane, specifically a branched-chain hydrocarbon. Its molecular formula is C13H28, indicating it consists of 13 carbon atoms and 28 hydrogen atoms. This compound features three methyl groups attached to a decane backbone, which contributes to its branched structure. As a result, 2,5,6-trimethyldecane exhibits characteristics typical of alkanes, such as being non-polar and hydrophobic, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It has a relatively high boiling point compared to straight-chain alkanes of similar molecular weight due to increased branching, which reduces surface area and van der Waals forces. This compound is likely to be a colorless liquid at room temperature and may have a mild hydrocarbon odor. Its applications may include use as a solvent or in the formulation of fuels and lubricants. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all hydrocarbons, due to potential flammability and health hazards.
