This alcohol, 2-ethyl-l-butanol, is a primary alcohol because there is only one alkyl group attached to the carbinol carbon. 

ETHYL-l-BUTANOL (97-95-0) Forms explosive mixture with air (flash point 70°F/ 21°C). Violent reaction with oxidizers, ammonium persulfate, bromine dioxide, nitric acid, perchlorates, permanganates, peroxides, sulfuric acid. Reacts, possibly violently, with acetaldehyde, alkalineearth and alkali metals, strong acids, strong caustics, aliphatic amines, benzoyl peroxide, boranes, chromic acid, chromium trioxide, dialkylzincs, dichlorine oxide, ethylene oxide, hypochlorous acid, isocyanates, isopropyl chlorocarbonate, lithium tetrahy-droaluminate, nitric acid, nitrogen dioxide, pentafluoroguanidine, phosphoms pentasulfide, tangerine oil, triethylaluminum, triisobutylaluminum. 

Distillation of the products yielded 14.89 g. b.p. 140-160° (b.p. hexanol, 157° 2-methyl-l-pentanol, 148° 2-ethyl-l-butanol, 147°). A sample of this distillate was analyzed by mass spectrometry and was shown to contain 1-hexanol, 65.3% 2-methyl-l-pentanol, 30.1% 2-ethyl-l-butanol, 3.3% hexane, 0.3% heptane, 1.0%. This accounted for 31.8% alcohols recovered, based on total added olefin. Thus, a total of 71.27 % of the added olefin was recovered either as unreacted olefins or alcohols. 

Hexanol. The most important isomers are hexanol [111-27-3], 2-ethyl-l-butanol [97-95-0] and methylisobutylcarbinol [/05-//-2] (4-methyl-2-pentanol). Hexanol is a high boiler and is used to improve the flow and surface properties of paints it is also used as a solvent for fats, waxes, and dyes.
