2-Methyldodecane, an organic compound with a chemical formula C₁₃H₂₈, is an isomer of tridecane. It is produced by the reaction of 1-bromodecane and diisopropyl zinc.^[3] Reaction of decylmagnesium bromide and 2-bromopropane produce 2-methyldodecane too.^[4] Another method to produce 2-methyldodecane is react 1-dodecene and trimethylaluminium.^[5]
