Metabolite Identification
Common Name1-Pentanol
Description1-Pentanol, also known as butylcarbinol or 1-pentyl alcohol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Thus, 1-pentanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. 1-Pentanol exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. 1-Pentanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans.
