No, Alpha-Methylene has 0 cetane number and naphthalene has 100 cetane number.

The paraffin are major constituents of natural gas and petroleum. Branched-chain paraffins have a much higher octane number rating than straight-chain paraffins and, therefore, are the more desirable constituents of gasoline. The hydrocarbons are immiscible with water. All paraffins are colourless.
