Amyl may refer to: Amylum or starch, a carbohydrate Amylopectin, a polymer of glucose found in plants; one of two components of starch; Amylose, a helical polymer made of α-D-glucose units; one of two components of starch; Pentyl, a five-carbon alkyl functional group, also known by the common non-systematic name amyl
The nomenclature has now reversed, with "amyl" being more often used to refer to the terminally branched group also called isopentyl, as in amobarbital. A cyclopentyl group is a ring with the formula -C 5 H 9. The name is also used for the pentyl radical, a pentyl group as an isolated molecule. This free radical is only observed in extreme ...
Amyl acetate (pentyl acetate) is an organic compound and an ester with the chemical formula CH 3 COO[CH 2] 4 CH 3 and the molecular weight 130.19 g/mol. It is colorless and has a scent similar to bananas [3] [4] and apples. [5] The compound is the condensation product of acetic acid and 1-pentanol.
The Gerber method is a primary and historic chemical test to determine the fat content of substances, most commonly milk and cream. [1] The Gerber method is the primary testing method in Europe and much of the world. [ 2 ]
2-Methyl-1-butanol (IUPAC name, also called active amyl alcohol) is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3)CH 2 OH. It is one of several isomers of amyl alcohol.This colorless liquid occurs naturally in trace amounts and has attracted some attention as a potential biofuel, exploiting its hydrophobic (gasoline-like) and branched structure.
Amyl chloride may refer to any of the monochlorinated derivatives of the isomers of pentane. They have the molecular formula C 5 H 11 Cl. tert-Amyl chloride;
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.
