3-METHYLHEXANE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Chemical Properties
CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID
Physical properties
Clear, colorless liquid with an odor similar to hexane. An odor threshold concentration of 840 ppbv was reported by Nagata and Takeuchi (1990).
Uses
3-Methylhexane can be used as a model alkane to study:
- Cu-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of simple alkanes to corresponding branched monocarboxylic acids in aqueous medium at low-temperature.
- Au-catalyzed oxygenation of alkanes with H2O2 in acetonitrile.
- FeCI3 catalyzed photooxygenation of simple alkanes to corresponding alcohols in presence of atmospheric O2.
Uses
Organic synthesis, oil extender solvent.
Definition
ChEBI: 3-methylhexane is an alkane that is hexane substituted by a methyl group at position 3. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is an alkane and a volatile organic compound.
Hazard
Flammable, dangerous fire risk.
Source
Schauer et al. (1999) reported 3-methylhexane in a diesel-powered medium-duty truck
exhaust at an emission rate of 310 μg/km.
California Phase II reformulated gasoline contained 3-methylhexane at a concentration of 16.2
g/kg. Gas-phase tailpipe emission rates from gasoline-powered automobiles with and without
catalytic converters were 2.95 and 415 mg/km, respectively (Schauer et al., 2002).
Environmental Fate
Photolytic. Based on a reported photooxidation reaction rate constant of 7.20 x 10-12
cm3/molecule?sec with OH radicals, the half-life of 3-methylhexane is 20 h (Altshuller, 1990).
Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air produces carbon dioxide and water vapor. 3-
Methylhexane will not hydrolyze because it does not contain a hydrolyzable functional group.
Purification Methods
Purify it as for 2-methylhexene. [Beilstein 1 IV 399.]
