Nonaneis a linearalkanehydrocarbonwith thechemical formulaC9H20.It is a colorless, flammable liquid, occurring primarily in the component of thepetroleum distillate fractioncommonly calledkerosene,which is used as a heating,tractor,andjet fuel.[4]Nonane is also used as asolvent,distillation chaser,fuel additive,and a component inbiodegradabledetergents.[5]
Nonane has 35structural isomers.
Itssubstituentform isnonyl.Itscycloalkanecounterpart iscyclononane,(C9H18).
Unlike most alkanes, the numeric prefix in its name is fromLatin,notGreek.(A name using a Greek prefix would beenneane.)
Combustion reactions
[edit]Nonane undergoescombustionreactions that are similar to otheralkanes.In the presence of sufficient oxygen, nonane burns to formwaterandcarbon dioxide.
When insufficient oxygen is available for complete combustion, the burning products includecarbon monoxide.
- 2C9H20+ 19O2→ 18CO+ 20H2O
