    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.

  3. Amyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amyl_alcohol

    Three of these alcohols, 2-methyl-1-butanol, 2-pentanol, and 3-methyl-2-butanol (methyl isopropyl carbinol), contain stereocenters, and are therefore chiral and optically active. The most important amyl alcohol is isoamyl alcohol, the chief one generated by fermentation in the production of alcoholic beverages and a constituent of fusel oil ...

    solution forms oily layer in 3–5 minutes: secondary, such as 2-pentanol; solution forms an oily layer immediately: tertiary, such as 2-methyl-2-butanol; The Lucas test is usually an alternative to the oxidation test - which is used to identify primary and secondary alcohols.

  6. tert-Amyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tert-Amyl_alcohol

    tert-Amyl alcohol (TAA) or 2-methylbutan-2-ol (2M2B), is a branched pentanol. Historically, TAA has been used as an anesthetic [3] and more recently as a recreational drug. [4] TAA is mostly a positive allosteric modulator for GABA A receptors in the same way as ethanol. [5] The psychotropic effects of TAA and ethanol are similar, though distinct.

  9. Primary alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_alcohol

    A primary alcohol is an alcohol in which the hydroxy group is bonded to a primary carbon atom. It can also be defined as a molecule containing a “–CH 2 OH” group. [1] In contrast, a secondary alcohol has a formula “–CHROH” and a tertiary alcohol has a formula “–CR 2 OH”, where “R” indicates a carbon-containing group.
