Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Butanol
Description2-Butanol, also known as 2-butyl alcohol or 2-hydroxybutane, 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). 2-Butanol is an odorless tasting compound. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Butanol.
