不溶于水，溶于乙醇、乙醚、苯等多数有机溶剂，蒸汽压53.32kPa/41.6℃ 用作溶剂、有机合成中间体、化学试剂。 2-Methylpentane is mainly used in studies involving the functionalization of aliphatic C-H bonds using different carbene insertion processes to form C-H insertion products. The metal-free Ritter-type amination reaction of tertiary C-H bond using iodic acid as an oxidant in the presence of N-hydroxyphthalimide has also been reported. Product Application： 2-Methylpentane is employed as a raw material, rubber solvent and vegetable oil extraction solvent. It is also used as a solvent in adhesives. Further, it is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and finds application in food, preservatives, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, beverages and flavor enhancer.
