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] The psychotropic effects of TAA and ethanol are similar, though distinct.
Isoamyl alcohol is a colorless liquid with the formula C 5 H 12 O, specifically (H 3 C–) 2 CH–CH 2 –CH 2 –OH. It is one of several isomers of amyl alcohol (pentanol). It is also known as isopentyl alcohol, isopentanol, or (in the IUPAC recommended nomenclature) 3-methyl-butan-1-ol. An obsolete name for it was isobutyl carbinol. [5]
tert-Butyl alcohol is the simplest tertiary alcohol, with a formula of (CH 3) 3 COH (sometimes represented as t-BuOH). Its isomers are 1-butanol, isobutanol, and butan-2-ol. tert-Butyl alcohol is a colorless solid, which melts near room temperature and has a camphor-like odor. It is miscible with water, ethanol and diethyl ether.

[3] Another method of production involves the isomerization of 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol using CuO–ZnO as a catalyst. A mixture of 3-methylbut-3-en-1-ol and 3-methylbut-2-en-1-ol may also be used. These starting materials are obtained from a reaction between isobutene and formaldehyde: [3] CH 3 CH 3 CCH 2 + CH 2 O → (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CHO
