1-Octanol, also known as octan-1-ol, is the organic compound with the molecular formula CH 3 (CH 2) 7 OH. It is a fatty alcohol. Many other isomers are also known generically as octanols. 1-Octanol is manufactured for the synthesis of esters for use in perfumes and flavorings. It has a pungent odor.
Octanols are alcohols with the formula C 8 H 17 OH. A simple and important member is 1-octanol, with an unbranched chain of carbons. Other commercially important octanols are 2-octanol and 2-ethylhexanol. Some octanols occur naturally in the form of esters in some essential oils. [1]
Octyl acetate, or octyl ethanoate, is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 7 O 2 CCH 3. It is classified as an ester that is formed from 1-octanol (octyl alcohol) and acetic acid. It is found in oranges, grapefruits, and other citrus products. [10] Octyl acetate can be synthesized by the Fischer esterification of 1-octanol and ...

2-Octanol (octan-2-ol, 2-OH) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH(OH)(CH 2) 5 CH 3. It is a colorless oily liquid that is poorly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. 2-Octanol is classified fatty alcohol .
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 .
1-Octacosanol [pronunciation?] (also known as n-octacosanol, octacosyl alcohol, cluytyl [pronunciation?] alcohol, montanyl [pronunciation?] alcohol) is a straight-chain aliphatic 28-carbon primary fatty alcohol that is common in the epicuticular waxes of plants, including the leaves of many species of Eucalyptus, of most forage and cereal grasses, of Acacia, Trifolium, Pisum and many other ...
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]
