    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentyl_group

    Pentyl is a five-carbon alkyl group or substituent with chemical formula-C 5 H 11. It is the substituent form of the alkane pentane. In older literature, the common non-systematic name amyl was often used for the pentyl group. Conversely, the name pentyl was used for

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentane

    Pentane is an organic compound with the formula C 5 H 12 —that is, an alkane with five carbon atoms. The term may refer to any of three structural isomers, or to a mixture of them: in the IUPAC nomenclature, however, pentane means exclusively the n-pentane isomer, in which case pentanes refers to a mixture of them; the other two are called isopentane (methylbutane) and neopentane ...

    5 H 12 or CH(CH 3) 2 (C 2 H 5). Isopentane is a volatile and flammable liquid. It is one of three structural isomers with the molecular formula C 5 H 12, the others being pentane (n-pentane) and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane). Isopentane is commonly used in conjunction with liquid nitrogen to achieve a liquid bath temperature of −160 °C.

    The alcohol pentaerythritol can be described as the result of replacing one hydrogen in each of the four methyl groups by a hydroxyl (–OH) group. A linear polymer with alternating neopentane and orthocarbonate groups, which can be described as an ester ( pentaerythritol orthocarbonate) with formula [(−CH 2 ) 2 C(CH 2 −) 2 (−O) 2 C(O− ...

  7. Alkyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an alkyl group is an alkane missing one hydrogen. [1] The term alkyl is intentionally unspecific to include many possible substitutions. An acyclic alkyl has the general formula of −C n H 2n+1. A cycloalkyl group is derived from a cycloalkane by removal of a hydrogen atom from a ring and has the general formula −C n H ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Pentanol

    2-Pentanol (IUPAC name: pentan-2-ol; also called sec-amyl alcohol) is an organic chemical compound.It is used as a solvent and an intermediate in the manufacturing of other chemicals. 2-Pentanol is a component of many mixtures of amyl alcohols sold industrially. 2-Pentanol is chiral and thus can be obtained as either of two stereoisomers designated as (R)-(−)-2-pentanol and (S)-(+)-2-pentanol.
