1-Octanol
1-Octanol is an alcohol chemical identified by its named molecular and positional structure.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
1-Octanol (synonym name: Caprylic Alcohol) is the organic compound with the molecular formula CH3 (CH2)7OH. It is a fatty alcohol. Many other isomers are also known generically as octanols.
1-Octanol is a liquid with colorless (to pale yellow liquid), fresh and orange-pose odor. 1-Octanol belongs to the group of primary aliphatic alcohols within a carbon chain length range of C 6-24. It is a fatty alcohol.
The full named identity, positional or stereochemical form, assay basis, impurity profile and supplied form define 1-Octanol. Material qualification and downstream formulation acceptance are distinct requirements; report segmentation is not a supplier specification.
