FAQs 1-Iodopentane | 628-17-1

Iodopentane is a chemical molecule that is part of the haloalkanes group. It has a five-carbon chain with an iodine atom added. In organic synthesis, it is often utilized as an alkylating agent.

Iodopentane is made up of a straight-chain alkane (pentane) with one iodine atom taking the place of one hydrogen atom. It is usually shown as CH₃(CH₂)₄I, which means that iodine is at the end of the carbon chain (1-iodopentane).

Iodopentane is a clear to pale yellow liquid with a molecular weight of 198.04 g/mol, a boiling point of about 157–158°C, and a density of about 1.5 g/cm³. Under normal conditions, it is rather stable.

Because it is non-polar, isopentane does not dissolve in water, but it does dissolve easily in organic solvents, including ether, chloroform, and alcohol. This makes it good for reactions that don't include water.

Iodopentane is a reactive chemical that is often employed in organic synthesis, especially in nucleophilic substitution processes, to make carbon-carbon bonds. Researchers and businesses also use it to make drugs and specialty compounds.
