Octyldodecanol is a branched-chain primary alcohol used as the isomer 2-octyl-1-dodecanol in cosmetics such as lipstick, [2] or as an anti-blooming agent in facepowder. [3] It is a medium spreading emollient, with equilibrium spreading pressure of 17.0 dyne/cm. [4] Octyldodecanol is in the class of Guerbet alcohols, because it has the branch at the β position. [5]
2-Octanol (octan-2-ol, 2-OH) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH(OH)(CH 2) 5 CH 3. It is a colorless oily liquid that is poorly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. 2-Octanol is classified fatty alcohol .

Stearyl alcohol, or 1-octadecanol, is an organic compound classified as a saturated fatty alcohol with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 16 CH 2 OH. It takes the form of white granules or flakes, which are insoluble in water. It has a wide range of uses as an ingredient in lubricants, resins, perfumes, and cosmetics.
1-Octanol, also known as octan-1-ol, is the organic compound with the molecular formula CH 3 (CH 2) 7 OH. It is a fatty alcohol. Many other isomers are also known generically as octanols. 1-Octanol is manufactured for the synthesis of esters for use in perfumes and flavorings. It has a pungent odor.
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 .
