3-Methylpentane Index of chemical compounds with the same molecular formula This set index page lists chemical structure articles associated with the same molecular formula .
3-Methylpentane is a branched alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the third carbon atom in a pentane chain. It is of similar structure to the isomeric 2-methylpentane , which has the methyl group located on the second carbon of the pentane chain.
As of early 1990s, it was present in American [4] and European [5] gasoline in small amounts, and by 2011 its share in US gas varied between 2 and 8%. [6] Using a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) prediction model, 2-Methylpentane has a research octane number (RON) of 75, motor octane number (MON) of 77, and cetane number (CN ...
3-Ethylpentane (C 7 H 16) is a branched saturated hydrocarbon. It is an alkane, and one of the many structural isomers of heptane, consisting of a five carbon chain with a two carbon branch at the middle carbon. An example of an alcohol derived from 3-ethylpentane is the tertiary alcohol 3-ethylpentan-3-ol. [3]
The longest possible main alkane chain is used; therefore 3-ethyl-4-methylhexane instead of 2,3-diethylpentane, even though these describe equivalent structures. The di-, tri- etc. prefixes are ignored for the purpose of alphabetical ordering of side chains (e.g. 3-ethyl-2,4-dimethylpentane, not 2,4-dimethyl-3-ethylpentane).
