Trans-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane is a bicyclic organic compound characterized by a cyclohexane ring with two methyl groups attached at the 1 and 3 positions in a trans configuration. This structural arrangement leads to a specific three-dimensional orientation that influences its physical and chemical properties. The compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a relatively low boiling point, indicative of its non-polar nature. Its molecular formula is C8H16, and it has a moderate density compared to water. Trans-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane is relatively stable under standard conditions but can undergo reactions typical of aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as combustion and halogenation. Due to its non-polar characteristics, it is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water. The compound's unique structure contributes to its applications in organic synthesis and as a reference compound in various chemical analyses. Additionally, its conformational flexibility allows for different spatial arrangements, which can affect its reactivity and interactions with other molecules.
