Octane, n-Octane, 99%, 50ml CAS Number: 111-65-9 Molecular Formula: C8H18 Molecular Weight: 114.23 IUPAC Name: Octane Structure: Octane is a hydrocarbon and an alkane with the chemical formula C8H18, and the condensed structural formula CH3(CH2)6CH3. Octane has many structural isomers that differ by the amount and location of branching in the carbon chain. As with all low-molecular weight hydrocarbons, octane and its isomers are very flammable and are components of gasoline (petrol). "Octane" is colloquially used as a short form of "octane rating" (named for the ability of octane's branched-chain isomers, especially isooctane, to reduce engine knock), particularly in the expression "high octane." However, components of gasoline other than isomers of octane can also contribute to a high octane rating, while some isomers of octane can lower it, and n-octane itself has a negative octane rating.
