  2. 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 ...

  3. 2-Methyl-2-pentanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methyl-2-pentanol

    2-Methyl-2-pentanol (IUPAC name: 2-methylpentan-2-ol) is an organic chemical compound. It can be added to a gas chromatograph to help distinguish between branched compounds, especially alcohols. [2] Its presence in urine can be used to test for exposure to 2-methylpentane. [3]

  4. 2-Pentanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Pentanol

    2-Pentanol (IUPAC name: pentan-2-ol; also called sec-amyl alcohol) is an organic chemical compound.It is used as a solvent and an intermediate in the manufacturing of other chemicals. 2-Pentanol is a component of many mixtures of amyl alcohols sold industrially. 2-Pentanol is chiral and thus can be obtained as either of two stereoisomers designated as (R)-(−)-2-pentanol and (S)-(+)-2-pentanol.

  5. 2-Methyl-1-butanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methyl-1-butanol

    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.

  6. Topicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topicity

    For instance, any one pair of CH 2 hydrogens in 3-pentanol (Figure 1) are diastereotopic, as the two CH 2 carbons are enantiotopic. Substitution of any one of the four CH 2 hydrogens creates two chiral centers at once, and the two possible hydrogen substitution products at any one CH 2 carbon will be diastereomers. This kind of relationship is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methyl-1-pentanol

    2-Methyl-1-pentanol (IUPAC name: 2-methylpentan-1-ol) is an organic chemical compound. It's used as a solvent and an intermediate in the manufacture of other chemicals. [ 2 ] Due to its low solubility in water it has recently been suggested as a solvent in liquid–liquid extraction of ethanol from fermented feedstocks.
