To prepare sulfonated hexacosanes, which are used as phase-change materials in the latent heat thermal energy storage process.
As a model n-alkane to study the solid-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures in N,N-dimethylacetamide and N,N-dimethylformamide.
정의
ChEBI: A straight-chain alkane comprising of 26 carbon atoms.
일반 설명
Colorless crystals. Occurs in many natural products.
공기와 물의 반응
Insoluble in water.
반응 프로필
Saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as N-HEXACOSANE, 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.
화재위험
Flash point data on N-HEXACOSANE is not available, but N-HEXACOSANE is probably combustible.
Purification Methods
Distil hexacosane under vacuum and recrystallise it from diethyl ether. [Beilstein 1 IV 583.]
