2,6-DIMETHYLOCTANE Structural

What is 2,6-DIMETHYLOCTANE?

Chemical properties

2,6-Dimethyloctane is a colourless, transparent liquid compound with a density of 0.73 g/mL3, a boiling point of 158° C, a flash point of 34 °C, soluble in ethanol and stored at room temperature.

The Uses of 2,6-DIMETHYLOCTANE

Myrcane is a useful synthetic intermediate. It was used to synthesize alcohols via C-H hydroxylation of alicyclic and aliphatics compounds.

The Uses of 2,6-DIMETHYLOCTANE

2,6-Dimethyloctane is used as a diesel fuel additive and as a chemical reaction reagent or product. Optically active 6-chloro-2,6-dimethyloctane is capable of being reduced to 2,6-dimethyloctane in alkali metal solutions in liquid ammonia, and its primary configuration remains unchanged[1-2].
