Pentane → HCID 86643015, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Approximately 220 mL of cold n-pentane kept at 0° C. was poured in a glass graduated cylinder. To the n-pentane was added approximately 1.7 mL of tert-butyl fluoride which was also kept at 0° C. The solution was mixed thoroughly and analyzed by CAP-GC using the CGSB (Canadian General Standards Board, 3.0 14.3-99) method for gasoline. The concentration of tert-butyl fluoride was 0.615 vol %. The solution was kept in the refrigerator at 0° C. Lower concentrations of the tert-butyl fluoride-n-pentane stock solution was obtained by diluting with pentane. To obtain 0.45 vol % of tert-butyl fluoride, 60.5 mL of n-pentane was added to 159.5 mL of the stock solution.
