2,6-DIMETHYLOCTANE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

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.

Uses

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].

Uses

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