| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless liquid. | [Reactivity Profile]
Saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as N-HEXADECANE(544-76-3), 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. | [Air & Water Reactions]

colourless liquid | [Uses]
Hexadecane is a component of gasoline, and is used as a
solvent, organic intermediate, ignition standard for diesel
fuels, and as stock for hydrocracking processes. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Hexadecane is a straight-chain alkane with 16 carbon atoms. It is a component of essential oil isolated from long pepper. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a volatile oil component and a non-polar solvent. | [Purification Methods]
Pass cetane through a column of silica gel and distil it under vacuum in a column packed with Pyrex helices. Store it over silica gel. It also crystallises from acetone, or fractionally crystallise it by partial freezing. [Beilstein 1 IV 537.] |
