| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Potential Exposure]
(n-isomer); Suspected reprotoxic hazard,
Primary irritant (w/o allergic reaction), (iso-, primary):
Possible risk of forming tumors, Primary irritant (w/o allergic
reaction), (sec-, active primary-, and other isomers)
Primary irritant (w/o allergic reaction). Used as a solvent in
organic synthesis and synthetic flavoring, pharmaceuticals,
corrosion inhibitors; making plastics and other chemicals;
as a flotation agent. The (n-isomer) is used in preparation
of oil additives, plasticizers, synthetic lubricants, and as a
solvent. | [First aid]
Skin contact contributes significantly to overall
exposure. If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including
resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical
attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit. | [Shipping]

(±)-2-Pentanol is a widely used solvent and a building block used in the synthesis of consumer products. | [Uses]
2-Pentanol is a secondary alcohol that can be used as:
- A hydrogen donor in the synthesis of methyl furan via catalytic transfer hydrogenation of furfural over a ruthenium/ruthenium oxide/carbon catalyst.
- A reagent in one-pot synthesis of brominated derivatives of 1,3-dioxolane.
- A solvent for the synthesis of organic molecules such as 2, 4-diaminopyrimidines and 4-aza-podophyllotoxins.
| [Definition]
ChEBI: A secondary alcohol that is pentane substituted at position 2 by a hydroxy group. | [Preparation]
By catalytic reduction of methyl n-propyl ketone. | [General Description]
2-Pentanol, a secondary alcohol, is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that is a common aroma-active component of food and beverage products. | [Purification Methods]
Refluxed it with CaO, distil it, then reflux it with magnesium and again fractionally distil it. [Beilstein 1 IV 1655.] |
| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Description]
2-Pentanol is a clear liquid that is soluble in water and alcohol. It has a fermented, alcoholic smell. It is used as a flavor and fragrance agent and applied in foods which require a crisp herbal or fruity smell and flavors such as dill, cucumber, cilantro, melon, rhubarb, guava, or tomato. It is used in baked goods, puddings, gravies, meat products, seasonings, soups, and non-alcoholic beverages. 2-pentanol is also used as a solvent and intermediate for the synthesis of other chemicals.
