Descriptions:
pubchem: Methylcyclohexane is a cycloalkane that is cyclohexane substituted by a single methyl group. It has a role as an aprotic solvent, a plant metabolite and a human metabolite. It is a volatile organic compound and a cycloalkane. It derives from a hydride of a cyclohexane.
chebi: A cycloalkane that is cyclohexane substituted by a single methyl group.
wikipedia: Methylcyclohexane (cyclohexylmethane) is an organic compound with the molecular formula is CH3C6H11. Classified as saturated hydrocarbon, it is a colourless liquid with a faint odor.
Methylcyclohexane is used as a solvent. It is mainly converted in naphtha reformers to toluene. A special use is in PF-1 priming fluid in cruise missiles to aid engine start-up when they run on special nonvolatile jet fuel like JP-10. Methylcyclohexane is also used in some correction fluids (such as White-Out) as a solvent.
