Chemical Properties

Orange liquid

Uses

4-Octylaniline can be been used as an extractant during the extraction of microgram level concentrations of ruthenium(IV) from halide medium. It can also been used in the synthesis of selective benzimidazole based analogs of sphingosine-1-phosphate.

General Description

Micrometer-sized oil droplet of 4-octylaniline containing 5 mol% of an amphiphilic catalyst exhibits a self-propelled motion, producing tiny oil droplets. Kinetics of proton transfer facilitated by 4-octylaniline across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and ac impedance.
