Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, drinking alcohol, or simply alcohol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 OH. It is an alcohol, with its formula also written as C 2 H 5 OH, C 2 H 6 O or EtOH, where Et stands for ethyl. Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with a characteristic wine-like ...
The primary alcohols have general formulas RCH 2 OH. The simplest primary alcohol is methanol (CH 3 OH), for which R = H, and the next is ethanol, for which R = CH 3, the methyl group. Secondary alcohols are those of the form RR'CHOH, the simplest of which is 2-propanol (R = R' = CH 3). For the tertiary alcohols, the general form is RR'R"COH.

Chloroethane is produced by hydrochlorination of ethylene: [11]. C 2 H 4 + HCl → C 2 H 5 Cl. At various times in the past, chloroethane has also been produced from ethanol and hydrochloric acid, from ethane and chlorine, or from ethanol and phosphorus trichloride, but these routes are no longer economical.

1-Propanol (also propan-1-ol, propanol, n-propyl alcohol) is a primary alcohol with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 OH and sometimes represented as PrOH or n-PrOH.It is a colourless liquid and an isomer of 2-propanol. 1-Propanol is used as a solvent in the pharmaceutical industry, mainly for resins and cellulose esters, and, sometimes, as a disinfecting agent.
Allyl alcohol (IUPAC name: prop-2-en-1-ol) is an organic compound with the structural formula CH 2 =CHCH 2 OH. Like many alcohols, it is a water-soluble, colourless liquid. It is more toxic than typical small alcohols. Allyl alcohol is used as a precursor to many specialized compounds such as flame-resistant materials, drying oils, and ...
