Description and Uses
1-Chlorooctane (1-CLO) is a colourless and transparent liquid at ambient temperatures. It has numerous synthetic applications in the chemical and polymer industry. It is used as an alkylating agent in organ synthesis and organometallic compound manufacturing, as an organic solvent, and as a medicine to control worms. It is utilized in the bio-synthesis of monomers with desired structures of biodegradable polymers, which have potential applications in areas such as degradable packaging, tissue engineering and drug delivery[1].
1-Chlorooctane has been used to determine the excess molar enthalpies of binary mixtures composed by 2-alkanone and 1-chloroalkane. It has been used in hydrophobic modification of ω-carrageenans polymers.
