Isobutyl alcohol, isobutanol, 2-methyl-propanol, isopropyl carbinol, Me2CHCH20H. B.p. 108°C. Occurs in fusel-oil. Oxidized by potassium permanganate to 2-methyl-propanoic acid dehydrated by strong sulphuric acid to 2-methylpropene. 

Tertiary butyl alcohol, trimethyl carbinol, tertiary butanol. 2-methyl-2-propanol, Me3COH. Colourless prisms, m.p. 25°C, b.p. 83°C. Prepared by absorbing isobutene (2-methylpropene) in sulphuric acid, neutralizing and steam distilling the liquor. Converted to isobutene by heating with oxalic acid. Potassium-/-buloxide is a very strong base. 

Glycerol -dichlorohydrin, 2.3-dichloro-propanol, CH2CI CHC1 CH2 0H. Colourless liquid, b.p. 182 C. Prepared by the chlorination of propenyl alcohol. Oxidized by nitric acid to 1,2-dichloropropionic acid. Reacts with NaOH to give epichlorohydrin. 

Synthesis of (A) started with the combination of 2,4,6-trimethylphenol and allyl bromide to give the or/Ao-allyl dienone. Acid-catalyzed rearrangement and oxidative bydroboration yielded the dienone with a propanol group in porlactone ring were irons in the product as expected (see p. 275). Treatment with aqueous potassium hydroxide gave the epoxy acid, which formed a crystalline salt with (R)-l-(or-naphthyl)ethylamine. This was recrystallized to constant rotation. 

In the acid catalyzed dehydration of 2 methyl 1 propanol what carbocation would be formed if a hydride shift accompanied cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond in the alkyloxonium lon" What ion would be formed as a result of a methyl shift" Which pathway do you think will predominate a hydnde shift or a methyl shift" ... 

In a widely used industnal process the mixture of ethylene and propene that is obtained by dehydrogenation of natural gas is passed into concentrated sulfunc acid Water is added and the solution IS heated to hydrolyze the alkyl hydrogen sulfate The product is almost exclusively a sin gle alcohol Is this alcohol ethanol 1 propanol or 2 propanoH Why is this particular one formed almost exclusively" ... 

An internal standard of 1-butanol is used to determine the concentrations of one or more of the following impurities commonly found in whiskey acetaldehyde, methanol, ethyl acetate, 1-propanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, acetic acid, 2-methyl-1-butanol and 3-methyl-1-butanol. A packed column using 5% Garbowax 20m on 80/120 Garbopak B and an EID detector were used. 

Hydrogenation gives aUyl alcohol [107-18-6] C H O, its isomer propanal [123-38-6] (20), or propanol, C H O [71-23-8] (21). With acidic mercuric salt catalysts, water adds to give acetol, hydroxyacetone, C2H 02 [116-09-6] (22). 

Docusate Calcium. Dioctyl calcium sulfosuccinate [128-49-4] (calcium salt of l,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)ester butanedioic acid) (11) is a white amorphous soHd having the characteristic odor of octyl alcohol. It is very slightly soluble in water, and very soluble in alcohol, polyethylene glycol 400, and com oil. It may be prepared directly from dioctyl sodium sulfo succinate dissolved in 2-propanol, by reaction with a methan olic solution of calcium chloride.
