The term "amyl nitrite" encompasses several isomers.In older literature, the common non-systematic name amyl was often used for the pentyl group, where the amyl group is a linear or normal (n) alkyl group, and the resulting amyl nitrite would have the structural formula CH 3 (CH 2) 3 CH 2 ONO, also referred to as n-amyl nitrite.

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
In chemistry, an alcohol (from Arabic al-kuḥl ' the kohl '), [2] is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl (−OH) functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom. [3] [4] Alcohols range from the simple, like methanol and ethanol, to complex, like sugar alcohols and cholesterol. The presence of an OH group strongly ...
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 ...
