tert-Butyl alcohol is used as a solvent, ethanol denaturant, paint remover ingredient, and gasoline octane booster and oxygenate.It is a chemical intermediate used to produce methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) by reaction with methanol and ethanol, respectively, and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) by reaction with hydrogen peroxide.
Butan-2-yl (sec-butyl) group is chiral. The carbon atom at position 2 is a stereocenter. It has four different groups attached: −H, −CH 3, −CH 2 −CH 3, and −R (the R group is not equal to those three groups). The names of the two chiral groups are: (2S)-butan-2-yl and (2R)-butan-2-yl.
Butyne is an alkyne that contains 4 carbon and 6 hydrogen. It contains one triple bond and has two isomeric organic chemical compounds: 1-Butyne (ethylacetylene)
2-Butyne is of interest to physical chemists because of its very low torsional barrier and the problem of determining that barrier using high-resolution infrared spectroscopy. Analysis of its spectrum [3] leads to a determination that the torsional barrier is only 6 cm −1 (1.2 × 10 −22 J or 72 J mol −1).
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. It is a liquid having the fishy, ammonia-like odor common to amines.
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.
Butyrophenone is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 C(O)C 3 H 7. It is a colorless liquid. It is a colorless liquid. The butyrophenone structure—a ketone flanked by a phenyl ring and a butyl chain —forms the basis for many other chemicals containing various substituents .
Pentanenitrile is hydrolyzed to valeric acid by the fungi Gibberella intermedia, [6] Fusarium oxysporum, and Aspergillus niger in which it induces production of the nitrilase enzyme. [ 7 ] References
