General description

1,8-Dichlorooctane is a chloroparaffin. The non-exponentiality of proton spin-lattice relaxation in polycrystalline 1,8-dichlorooctane in Zeeman-quadrupole level-crossing experiments at various frequencies is reported. It has important synthetic applications in food, pharmaceutical, biomedical, electrical and electronic sectors.

Application

1,8-Dichlorooctane may be used:
  • as adsorbate to investigate the performance of carbonaceous materials for the adsorption of emerging pollutants
  • to prepare the C20-backbone of 1,20-substituted eicosanes carrying phosphate headgroups and readily derivatizable thiol, maleimido, and activated carboxylic ester moieties
  • in the synthesis of planar-chiral imidazolium salt
  • in the preparation of biosensors
  • in the fabrication of strong polymeric membranes for concentrating amino acids, having applications in food and pharmaceutical industry
  • in the synthesis of perfluorocarbons having biomedical applications
