Description

Recommended products
2-N-Hexylfuran 97%

Application
2-Methylpentane is mainly used in studies involving the functionalization of aliphatic CH bonds using different carbene insertion processes to form CH insertion products.The metal-free Ritter-type amination reaction of tertiary CH bond using iodic acid as an oxidant in the presence ofN-hydroxyphthalimide has also been reported.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.

General Description
2-Methylpentane is a branched-chain alkane with the molecular formula C6H14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the second carbon atom in a pentane chain.
