General Description
2 4-Dimethylhexane is a branched-chain hydrocarbon that belongs to the alkane family. It is a saturated compound containing only single bonds and the presence of methyl groups at the 2nd and 4th carbon atoms makes it more compact than straight-chain alkanes. It is generally a colorless liquid and is relatively less reactive showing typical alkane reactions such as combustion and substitution.
