Propanol

From Plastics Wiki, free encyclopedia

There are two isomers of propanol. If the isomer is unstated, it is more likely to refer to propan-1-ol.

• Propan-1-ol (or n-propanol) — CH₃CH₂CH₂OH
• Propan-2-ol (or isopropyl alcohol, or isopropanol) — (CH₃)₂CHOH

Note that propanal, differing in spelling from propanol by a single letter, is a different compound.
