3-Methylpentane is a branched alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the third carbon atom in a pentane chain. It is of similar structure to the isomeric 2-methylpentane , which has the methyl group located on the second carbon of the pentane chain.
3-Methyl-3-pentanol (IUPAC name: 3-methylpentan-3-ol) is an organic chemical compound and a tertiary hexanol. It is used in the synthesis of the tranquilizer emylcamate , [ 2 ] and has similar sedative and anticonvulsant actions itself.
Thus, the name is 3-methylpentane to avoid ambiguity: The 3- is because the methyl is attached to the third of the five carbon atoms. If there is more than one of the same alkyl group attached to a chain, then the prefixes are used on the alkyl groups to indicate multiples (i.e., di, tri, tetra, etc.)

2,3-Dimethylpentane is notable for being one of the two simplest alkanes with optical (enantiomeric) isomerism. The optical center is the middle carbon of the pentane backbone, which is connected to one hydrogen atom, one methyl group, one ethyl group – C 2 H 5, and one isopropyl group – CH(CH 3) 2.
3-Methyl-2-pentanol (IUPAC name: 3-methylpentan-2-ol) is an organic chemical compound. It has been identified as a component of hops. [2] Its presence in urine can be used to test for exposure to 3-methylpentane. [3]
