Beschrijving
Isooctane is a high-purity branched alkane offered at a minimum of 99,75 % for synthesis use. Identified by CAS number 540-84-1 and the empirical formula C₈H₁₈, this C₈ hydrocarbon has a molar mass of 114,23 g/mol and a density of 0,69 g/cm³ at standard conditions. Its boiling point of 99,2 °C and flash point of −12 °C are important parameters for reaction planning, distillation steps and safe laboratory handling of flammable organic liquids. The product is supplied in a 500 ml glass bottle, a convenient pack size for preparative organic chemistry, extraction work and non-polar solvent applications that demand a defined isooctane grade. Physical and identity data provided by manufacturer Carl ROTH include EG number 208-759-1 and UN number 1262, supporting correct classification and documentation in regulated laboratory environments. Synthesis chemists value isooctane for its well-characterised volatility and solvating behaviour when a branched octane isomer is specified. This listing covers the 500 ml glass unit of the min. 99,75 % for-synthesis quality, enabling straightforward integration into existing reagent inventories without ambiguity over concentration or container type.
This article is part of Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), in Solvents.

Questions about Isooctane, min. 99.75 %, for synthesis, 500 ml
What is this article?
Isooctane, min. 99.75 %, for synthesis, 500 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Oplosmiddelen van analytische kwaliteit (p.a.), inside Oplosmiddelen, in Chemicaliën.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
