Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-Methyl-2-butanol
Description3-Methyl-2-butanol, also known as (CH3)2chch(OH)CH3 or 1,2-dimethylpropanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols are compounds containing a secondary alcohol functional group, with the general structure HOC(R)(R') (R,R'=alkyl, aryl). 3-Methyl-2-butanol is a fruity tasting compound. 3-Methyl-2-butanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within beer. 3-Methyl-2-butanol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as alcoholic beverages, citrus, fruits, and pomes. This could make 3-methyl-2-butanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 3-Methyl-2-butanol.
