Hentetracontane is a long-chain alkane with the molecular formula C34H70, belonging to the class of hydrocarbons. It is characterized by its straight-chain structure, consisting of 34 carbon atoms and 70 hydrogen atoms. This substance is typically a colorless, odorless solid at room temperature, exhibiting a high melting point due to its large molecular size. Hentetracontane is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, which is a common trait among long-chain hydrocarbons. Its physical properties include a relatively high boiling point, making it stable under various conditions. Hentetracontane is often studied for its applications in materials science, particularly in the development of waxes and coatings, as well as in the field of organic chemistry for its potential use as a standard in chromatographic analyses. Additionally, it may be found in certain natural waxes and is of interest in the study of lipid chemistry. Safety data indicates that, like many hydrocarbons, it should be handled with care to avoid inhalation or prolonged skin contact.
