Chemical Information
FooDB NameNonane
DescriptionNonane, also known as n-Nonane or CH3-[CH2]7-CH3, is a straight-chain alkane with 9 carbon atoms. It belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. They are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2, and consist entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Nonane is a hydrocarbon lipid molecule that is very hydrophobic, practically insoluble in water and relatively neutral. It has a gasoline odor ( http://www.thegoodscentscompany.com/data/rw1269671.html#toorgano). Nonane can be found in higher concentrations in limes and common oregano. Nonane has also been detected in celeriac, sweet bay, sweet cherries, gingers, and garden tomato (http://www.thegoodscentscompany.com/data/rw1269671.html#tooccur).
