Where does the name octane come from?

Octane is the name of a molecule, with formula C8H18. It is named that based on IUPAC conventions for naming molecules. The "oct" prefix means 8, for the 8 carbon atoms, and the "ane" ending means that there are only carbons and hydrogens and they are all bonded with single bonds only.If you are referring to "octane rating" of gasoline, it does come from the name of the molecule, but the definition is actually pretty weird in that the definition has nothing to do with the actual molecule of octane!See the Web Links for more about the molecule octane and what the octane rating on gasoline means.
