Nonane is a linear alkane hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C9H20.

Nonane has 35 structural isomers. Tripropylene is a mixture of three specific isomers of nonane.

Its substituent form is nonyl. Its cycloalkane counterpart is cyclononane, (C9H18).


Unlike most alkanes, the numeric prefix in its name is from Latin, not Greek. (Its former name, enneane, used a Greek prefix.)
