Heptanol may refer to any isomeric alcohols with the formula C 7 H 16 O: 1-Heptanol , an alcohol with a seven carbon chain and the structural formula of CH 3 (CH 2 ) 6 OH 2-Heptanol , a secondary alcohol with the hydroxyl on the second carbon of the straight seven-carbon chain
1-Heptanol is an alcohol with a seven carbon chain and the structural formula of CH 3 (CH 2) 6 OH. [1] It is a clear colorless liquid that is very slightly soluble in water, but miscible with ether and ethanol .
2-Heptanol is a chemical compound which is an isomer of heptanol. It is a secondary alcohol with the hydroxyl on the second carbon of the straight seven-carbon chain. The compound is flammable and irritant, and through inhalation, ingestion or though skin it can enter into the body. [3] 2-Heptanol is chiral, so (R)- and (S)-isomers exist.
3-Heptanol or heptan-3-ol is an organic alcohol with the chemical formula C 7 H 16 O. [1] 3-Heptanol is chiral, so (R)- and (S)- isomers exist. References
The formation of heptanal in the fractional distillation of castor oil [3] was already described in 1878. The large-scale production is based on the pyrolytic cleavage of ricinoleic acid [4] (Arkema method) and on the hydroformylation of 1-hexene with rhodium 2-ethylhexanoate as a catalyst upon addition of some 2-ethylhexanoic acid (Oxea method): [2] [5]

2-Propylheptanol is an oxo alcohol, meaning that it is produced from the hydroformylation ("oxo synthesis") of C4 alkenes followed by hydrogenation of the resulting aldehyde.
