 |  | 4-METHYLOCTANE Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | Clear, colorless, watery, flammable liquid with a faint hydrocarbon odor resembling gasoline or
similarly structured alkanes, e.g., 3-methyloctane. |  | Uses | Gasoline component; organic synthesis. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 103, p. 7672, 1981 DOI: 10.1021/ja00415a055 |  | Environmental fate | Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion of 4-methyloctane in air produces carbon dioxide and water vapor. 4-Methyloctane will not hydrolyze because it does not contain a hydrolyzable
functional group. |
