3) 2 (C 2 H 5). Isopentane is a volatile and flammable liquid. It is one of three structural isomers with the molecular formula C 5 H 12, the others being pentane (n-pentane) and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane). Isopentane is commonly used in conjunction with liquid nitrogen to achieve a liquid bath temperature of −160 °C.
tert-Amyl chloride (2-methyl-2-butyl chloride) is an alkyl chloride used for flavoring and odorizing. [2] At room temperature, it is a colorless liquid with an unpleasant odor. It is an isomer of 1-chloropentane ( n -amyl chloride).

[2] [5] The compound is used as a reactant in the synthesis of a number of compounds. Notably it is used to synthesize 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene, and is then converted to 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol and methyl tert-butyl ketone, better known as pinacolone. Pinacolone itself is then used in synthesis for number of pesticides.
(ch 3) 3 coh + hcl → (ch 3) 3 ccl + h 2 o Because tert -butanol is a tertiary alcohol, the relative stability of the tert -butyl carbocation in the step 2 allows the S N 1 mechanism to be followed, whereas a primary alcohol would follow an S N 2 mechanism.
The boiling points of chlorides are lower than bromides or iodides due to the small size of chlorine relative to other halogens, and its weaker intermolecular forces. Despite its polarity, 2-chlorobutane is only slightly soluble in water due to the hydrocarbon chain its attached to, this makes it soluble in nonpolar-organic solvents.
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 ]
