Chemical Information

FooDB Name

N-Dodecane

Description

N-dodecane, also known as bihexyl or CH3-[CH2]10-CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2, and consist entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. N-dodecane is a hydrocarbon lipid molecule that is very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. N-dodecane is found in higher concentrations in black walnuts and butter and lower amounts in lamb, cocoa, dill, wild strawberry, peas, tea and papaya ( http://www.thegoodscentscompany.com/data/rw1242151.html#tooccur). It was detected in garden tomatoes.
