| Use | GB 2760-96 specifies the permitted use of flavorants. Mainly used in the preparation of apple and banana flavor. used as chromatographic analysis reagent and extractant, also used in pharmaceutical industry, etc. used in the manufacture of spices, pharmaceuticals and mineral processing agents, it can also be used as a solvent The product has an Apple-brandy aroma and a spicy flavor. China's GB 2760-86 for the permitted use of edible spices, mainly for the preparation of apple and banana flavor. Isoamyl alcohol is esterified with sodium nitrite to obtain isoamyl nitrite, which is the fastest acting nitrite short-acting vasodilator. Isoamyl alcohol is also used in the synthesis of the sedative hypnotics bromina and Amit. Isoamyl alcohol can also be used as a solvent and reagent for chemical analysis. It is also used as a raw material for the production of plasticizers and photographic drugs. It is also a component of fuel oil. used in the manufacture of spices, pharmaceutical and photographic medicines, can also be used as solvent fat, resin, alkaloid solvent, determination of fat in milk, determination of iron, silicon, thorium and fusel oil, etc. It is also used for complexation extraction of iron, cobalt, copper salts and diphenylcarbazide. Separation of lithium chloride from other alkali metal chlorides. |
| production method | the product is naturally present in the form of Ester in strawberry, pepper mint, citronella, ammonium leaf oil and rum, etc. It can be obtained by the acid-generating method or the carbonyl synthesis of a C4 olefin. 3-methyl -1-butanol (85% in fusel oil) can be obtained by chemical treatment and distillation separation of starch and sugar-dense alcohol fermentation by-product fusel oil. obtained by fractionation of fusel oil. It is obtained by chlorination and hydrolysis of pentane to form mixed alcohol, and then fractionation. |

3-METHYLBUTAN-1-OL - Nature
Open Data Verified Data
colorless transparent liquid. There is a special unpleasant smell. With ethanol, ether, benzene, chloroform, petroleum ether, acetic acid, oil phase miscibility. Slightly soluble in water (14 °c, 2g/100ml). Its vapor and air to form an explosive mixture, fire, high heat caused by combustion explosion. A strong reaction with an oxidizing agent can occur. In case of high heat, the internal pressure of the container increases, and there is a risk of cracking and explosion.
