3-METHYLHEPTANE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

Colorless liquid.

Physical properties

Colorless, flammable liquid with an odor resembling hexane. An odor threshold concentration of 1.5 ppmv was reported by Nagata and Takeuchi (1990).

Uses

Calibration, organic synthesis.

Definition

ChEBI: 3-Methylheptane is an alkane.

Hazard

Flammable, dangerous fire risk.

Environmental Fate

Photolytic. Based on a photooxidation rate constant of 8.90 x 10-12 cm3/moleculesec for the reaction of 3-methylheptane and OH radicals, the estimated lifetime is 16 h during summer sunlight (Altshuller, 1991).
Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air produces carbon dioxide and water vapor. 3- Methylheptane will not hydrolyze because it does not contain a hydrolyzable functional group.

Solubility in organics

In methanol, g/L: 154 at 5 °C, 170 at 10 °C, 190 at 15 °C, 212 at 20 °C, 242 at 25 °C, 274 at 30 °C, 314 at 35 °C, 365 at 40 °C (Kiser et al., 1961); miscible in many liquid hydrocarbons, particularly saturated hydrocarbons.
