n -Hexatriacontan is a long-chain, unbranched and saturated alkane . It belongs to the group of higher alkanes .

Presentation and extraction

It is produced by the Wurtz synthesis from octadecyl iodide and sodium .

properties

Hexatriacontane occurs in three polymorphic crystal forms. Form I melts at 76 ° C with a melting enthalpy of 88.74 kJ mol −1 . Two solid phase transitions precede the melting point. At 72 ° C the conversion of form III to form II takes place, at 74 ° C the conversion from form II to form I. At room temperature, crystal form III is the thermodynamically stable form. The compound can occur in monoclinic crystal lattices for forms II and III and an orthorhombic crystal lattice for form I.

The vapor pressure curve can be calculated in the temperature range from 452 K to 516 K using the August equation as log 10 ( p ) = A - ( B / T ) ( p in kPa, T in K) with A = 14.67 and B = 8228 describe. The enthalpy of vaporization is 157 kJ mol −1 .

The compound can be mixed indefinitely with n-heptane . The solubility curve shows only a low content of hexatriacontane at low temperatures, which increases very quickly with increasing temperature.
