Chemical Structure

1,4-Dicyclohexylbenzene CAS 1087-02-1 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C18H26, 1,4-Dicyclohexylbenzene contains an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 242.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
