Most often, 1-pentene is made as a byproduct of catalytic or thermal cracking of petroleum or during the production of ethylene and propylene via thermal cracking of hydrocarbon fractions. As of 2010s, the only commercial manufacturer of 1-pentene was Sasol Ltd. , where it is separated from crude by the Fischer-Tropsch process .

3-Penten-2-one occurs naturally in the berries of two species of Aronia melanocarpa. [7] It has also been found in other plants and foods such as tomatoes, cocoa, tea, and potato chips. [5] 3-Penten-2-one can be used for the synthesis of other compounds such as the alkaloids senepodine G and cermizine C, for example. [7]
Oct-1-en-3-one (CH 2 =CHC(=O)(CH 2) 4 CH 3), also known as 1-octen-3-one or amyl vinyl ketone, is the odorant that is responsible for the typical "metallic" smell of metals and blood coming into contact with skin. [2] Oct-1-en-3-one has a strong metallic mushroom-like odor with an odor detection threshold of 0.03–1.12 μg/m 3 and it is the ...
1-Octen-3-ol, octenol for short and also known as mushroom alcohol, [1] is a chemical that attracts biting insects such as mosquitoes. It is contained in human breath and sweat, and it is believed that insect repellent DEET works by blocking the insects' octenol odorant receptors. [2] [3] [4]
1-Pentanol, (or n-pentanol, pentan-1-ol), is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH and is classified as a primary alcohol. [2] It is a colourless liquid with a distinctive aroma. It is one of 8 isomeric alcohols with the formula C 5 H 11 OH. It is used as a solvent, a biological drying agent and in the synthesis of ...
3-Methyl-3-pentanol (IUPAC name: 3-methylpentan-3-ol) is an organic chemical compound and a tertiary hexanol. It is used in the synthesis of the tranquilizer emylcamate , [ 2 ] and has similar sedative and anticonvulsant actions itself.
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 ]
