Pentyl is a five-carbon alkyl group or substituent with chemical formula-C 5 H 11.It is the substituent form of the alkane pentane.. In older literature, the common non-systematic name amyl was often used for the pentyl group.
To avoid long and tedious names in normal communication, the official IUPAC naming recommendations are not always followed in practice, except when it is necessary to give an unambiguous and absolute definition to a compound. IUPAC names can sometimes be simpler than older names, as with ethanol, instead of ethyl alcohol. For relatively simple ...
1-Aminopentane is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 4 NH 2.It is used as a solvent, as a raw material in the manufacture of a variety of other compounds, including dyes, emulsifiers, and pharmaceutical products, [1] and as a flavoring agent.
tert-Butylamine (also erbumine and other names) is an organic chemical compound with the formula (CH 3) 3 CNH 2.It is a colorless liquid with a typical amine-like odor. tert-Butylamine is one of the four isomeric amines of butane, the others being n-butylamine, sec-butylamine and isobutylamine.
The IUPAC numerical multiplier is a system of prefixes used in chemistry to indicate the number of atoms or groups in a molecule.
n-Butylamine is an organic compound (specifically, an amine) with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 3 NH 2.This colourless liquid is one of the four isomeric amines of butane, the others being sec-butylamine, tert-butylamine, and isobutylamine.
Thus, the name is 3-methylpentane to avoid ambiguity: The 3- is because the methyl is attached to the third of the five carbon atoms. If there is more than one of the same alkyl group attached to a chain, then the prefixes are used on the alkyl groups to indicate multiples (i.e., di, tri, tetra, etc.)
sec-Butylamine is one of the four isomeric amines of butane, the others being n-butylamine, tert-butylamine, and isobutylamine. sec-Butylamine is chiral and therefore can exist in either of two enantiomeric forms. sec-Butylamine is used in the production of some pesticides. [2] Bromacil, a commercial herbicide, is produced from sec-butylamine. [3]
