Secondary alcohols are compounds containing a secondary alcohol functional group, with the general structure HOC(R)(R') (R, R'=alkyl, aryl). 3-Pentanol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 3-Pentanol is a sweet, fruit, and herbal tasting compound. 3-Pentanol has been detected, but not quantified in, prickly pears. This could make 3-pentanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3-Pentanol is one of eight isomers of amyl alcohol. An amyl alcohol is any of 8 alcohols with the formula C5H12O. A mixture of amyl alcohols (also called amyl alcohol) can be obtained from fusel alcohol. Amyl alcohol is used as a solvent and in esterfication, by which is produced amyl acetate and other important products. The name amyl alcohol without further specification applies to the normal (straight-chain) form, 1-pentanol.C5H12O88.1588.088815006pentan-3-ol3-pentanol584-02-1CCC(O)CCInChI=1S/C5H12O/c1-3-5(6)4-2/h5-6H,3-4H2,1-2H3AQIXEPGDORPWBJ-UHFFFAOYSA-Nlogp1.22logs-0.12solubility6.75e+01 g/llogp1.3pka_strongest_acidic18.18pka_strongest_basic-1.4iupacpentan-3-olaverage_mass88.15mono_mass88.088815006smilesCCC(O)CCformulaC5H12OinchiInChI=1S/C5H12O/c1-3-5(6)4-2/h5-6H,3-4H2,1-2H3inchikeyAQIXEPGDORPWBJ-UHFFFAOYSA-Npolar_surface_area20.23refractivity26.48polarizability11rotatable_bond_count2acceptor_count1donor_count1physiological_charge0formal_charge0Specdb::CMs102855Specdb::MsMs1290820Specdb::MsMs1290821Specdb::MsMs1290822Specdb::MsMs1405525Specdb::MsMs1405526Specdb::MsMs1405527Specdb::MsMs3606988Specdb::MsMs3606989Specdb::MsMs3606990Specdb::MsMs3606991Specdb::MsMs3606992Specdb::MsMs3606993Prickly pearType 1specificOpuntia106975fruitherbalnuttyoilysweet
