Octane Stereo Isomers 10 3 4 Dimethylhexane
Octane is a hydrocarbon and also an alkane with the chemical formula C8H18, and the condensed structural formula CH3(CH2)6CH3. Octane has many structural isomers that differ by the location of branching in the carbon chain. One of these isomers, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane (commonly called iso-octane), is used as one of the standard values in the octane rating scale. Octane is a component of gasoline and petroleum. Under standard temperature and pressure, octane is an odorless, colorless liquid. Like other short-chained alkanes with a low molecular weight, it is volatile, flammable, and toxic. Octane is 1.2 to 2 times more toxic than heptane. Isomers N-octane has 23 constitutional isomers. 8 of these isomers have one stereocenter; 3 of them have two stereocenters. Achiral isomers: * 2-Methylheptane * 4-Methylheptane * 3-Ethylhexane * 2,2-Dimethylhexane * 2,5-Dimethylhexane * (''meso'')-3,4-Dimethylhexane * 3,3-Dimethylhexane * 3-Ethyl-2-methylpentane * 3-Ethyl-3-methylpent ...

Octonium
In chemistry, a carbonium ion is a cation that has a Coordination number, pentacoordinated carbon atom. They are a type of carbocation. In older literature, the name "carbonium ion" was used for what is today called carbenium ion, carbenium. Carbonium ions charge is delocalized in three-center, two-electron bonds. The more stable members are often bi- or polycyclic. 2-Norbornyl cation The 2-Norbornyl cation , 2-norbornyl cation is one of the best-characterized carbonium ions. It is the prototype for non-classical ions. As indicated first by low-temperature NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography, it has a symmetric structure with an RCH2+ group bonded to an alkene group, stabilized by a bicyclic structure. Cyclopropylmethyl cation A non-classical structure for is supported by substantial experimental evidence from solvolysis experiments and NMR studies. One or both of two structures, the cyclopropylcarbinyl cation and the bicyclobutonium cation, were invoked ...

Volatility (chemistry)
In chemistry, volatility is a material quality which describes how readily a substance vaporizes. At a given temperature and pressure, a substance with high volatility is more likely to exist as a vapour, while a substance with low volatility is more likely to be a liquid or solid. Volatility can also describe the tendency of a vapor to condense into a liquid or solid; less volatile substances will more readily condense from a vapor than highly volatile ones. Differences in volatility can be observed by comparing how fast substances within a group evaporate (or sublimate in the case of solids) when exposed to the atmosphere. A highly volatile substance such as rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol) will quickly evaporate, while a substance with low volatility such as vegetable oil will remain condensed. In general, solids are much less volatile than liquids, but there are some exceptions. Solids that sublimate (change directly from solid to vapor) such as dry ice (solid carbon di ...

3,3-Dimethylhexane
3,3-Dimethylhexane is a colourless, odourless liquid, chemical compound in the family of hydrocarbons which has a formula of C8H18. It is an isomer of octane, where two methylene hydrogens at the third position in a hexane molecule have been replaced with two methyl groups. 3,3-Dimethylhexane is found in various herbs and spices. It is also a constituent in the oil of osmanthus fragrans and Ginseng. 3,3-Dimethylhexane is an acyclic alkane, where there are no cycles in the structure of the molecule. It is one of the main extracts from cinnamon bark using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, with it being 10.6% of the extracted material; it is second behind trans-cinnamaldehyde with it being 32.1% of the extracted material. Uses 3,3-dimethylhexane can be used in the production of phytochemical compounds which are effective in the removal of heavy metals, since when cyanobacteria are exposed to aliphatic compounds, or alkanes, and some heavy metals they produce phytochemical c ...

2,5-Dimethylhexane
2,5-Dimethylhexane is a branched alkane used in the aviation industry in low revolutions per minute helicopters. As an isomer of octane, the boiling point The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding envi ... is very close to that of octane, but can in pure form be slightly lower. 2,5-Dimethylhexane is moderately toxic.

2,2-Dimethylhexane
The comma is a punctuation mark that appears in several variants in different languages. Some typefaces render it as a small line, slightly curved or straight, but inclined from the vertical; others give it the appearance of a miniature filled-in figure placed on the baseline. In many typefaces it is the same shape as an apostrophe or single closing quotation mark . The comma is used in many contexts and languages, mainly to separate parts of a sentence such as clauses, and items in lists mainly when there are three or more items listed. The word ''comma'' comes from the Greek (), which originally meant a cut-off piece, specifically in grammar, a short clause. A comma-shaped mark is used as a diacritic in several writing systems and is considered distinct from the cedilla. In Byzantine and modern copies of Ancient Greek, the " rough" and "smooth breathings" () appear above the letter. In Latvian, Romanian, and Livonian, the comma diacritic appears below the letter, a ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

2-Methylheptane
2-Methylheptane is a branched-chain alkane and an isomer of octane. It is an heptane molecule with a methyl group attached to its second atom. It is a flammable colorless liquid used as fuel. If the standard definition of the prefix "iso-" is strictly used then 2-methylheptane can be called "Isooctane". However this name is usually used for another much more important isomer of octane 2,2,4-trimethylpentane 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane, also known as isooctane or iso-octane, is an organic compound with the formula (CH3)3CCH2CH(CH3)2. It is one of several isomers of octane (C8H18). This particular isomer is the standard 100 point on the octane rating scale ....
