n-Heptadecane Usage And Synthesis
| Chemical Properties | colourless liquid or white solid |
| Uses | n-Heptadecane is used as an internal standard to study the first direct comparison of kava lactone extraction efficiencies. It plays an important role as a suspended solvent used for the extraction and concentration of essential oil. It is used as a precursor in the production of iminoctadine triacetate |
| Application | Heptadecane was used as an internal standard in the reaction to study the first direct comparison of kava lactone extraction efficiencies. It was also used as the appropriate suspended solvent for the extraction and concentration of EO (essential oil). |
| Preparation | Gas-phase dehydrogenation of n-alkanes over noble-metal catalysts yield the corresponding n-alkenes at low conversion rates (ca. 10%) with predominantly internal double bonds. The corresponding alkenes can be isolated in high purity by selective molecular-sieve processes. |
| Definition | ChEBI: Heptadecane is a straight-chain alkane with 17 carbon atoms. It is a component of essential oils from plants like Opuntia littoralis and Annona squamosa. It has a role as a plant metabolite and a volatile oil component. |
| General Description | Hexagonal leafs. |
| Air & Water Reactions | Flammable. Insoluble in water. |
| Reactivity Profile | Saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as N-HEPTADECANE, may be incompatible with strong oxidizing agents like nitric acid. Charring of the hydrocarbon may occur followed by ignition of unreacted hydrocarbon and other nearby combustibles. In other settings, aliphatic saturated hydrocarbons are mostly unreactive. They are not affected by aqueous solutions of acids, alkalis, most oxidizing agents, and most reducing agents. When heated sufficiently or when ignited in the presence of air, oxygen or strong oxidizing agents, they burn exothermically to produce carbon dioxide and water. |
| Fire Hazard | Flash point data for N-HEPTADECANE is not available,but N-HEPTADECANE is probably combustible. |
