CAS 7098-26-2

octatetracontane

Description:

Octatetracontane, with the CAS number 7098-26-2, is a long-chain alkane hydrocarbon characterized by its straight-chain structure consisting of 44 carbon atoms and 90 hydrogen atoms, making it part of the n-alkane series. It is a colorless, odorless, and waxy solid at room temperature, exhibiting a high melting point due to its long carbon chain. Octatetracontane is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting typical behavior of alkanes. Its molecular structure contributes to its low reactivity, making it stable under standard conditions. This compound is primarily used in research and industrial applications, including as a standard in the study of hydrocarbon properties and in the formulation of certain waxes and coatings. Additionally, octatetracontane can serve as a model compound for understanding the behavior of larger alkanes in various chemical processes. Its thermal stability and non-polar nature make it suitable for applications in high-temperature environments.
