2,2,4,4-tetramethyloctane

Description:

2,2,4,4-Tetramethyloctane is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C14H30. It is characterized by its structure, which includes four methyl groups attached to a straight-chain octane backbone, specifically at the 2 and 4 positions. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is typically non-polar, making it insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Due to its branched structure, 2,2,4,4-tetramethyloctane has a relatively high octane rating, which makes it a valuable component in fuels and lubricants, as it can enhance combustion efficiency and reduce knocking in engines. The compound is stable under normal conditions but may undergo combustion in the presence of oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and density, are influenced by its molecular structure, which contributes to its applications in various industrial processes. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and storage guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
