1-Pentanol (BioCAD00000001465)
Formula: C5H12O (Exact Mass: 88.0888)

1-Pentanol, also known as butylcarbinol or 1-pentyl alcohol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Thus, 1-pentanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. 1-Pentanol is an organic compound with the formula C5H12O. 1-Pentanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. All eight isomers of 1-Pentanol are known:; It is a colourless liquid of density 0.8247 g/cm3 (0 oC), boiling at 131.6 oC, slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in organic solvents. 1-Pentanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. 1-Pentanol is a sweet, balsamic, and fusel tasting compound. 1-Pentanol can be found in a few different foods, such as black walnuts, common thymes, and tea and in a lower concentration in safflowers, highbush blueberries, and kohlrabis. 1-Pentanol has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as corns, garden tomato (var.), allspices, cherry tomato, and evergreen blackberries. It possesses a characteristic strong smell and a sharp burning taste. The other amyl alcohols may be obtained synthetically. It is a solid that melts at 48 to 50 °C and boils at 112.3 °C. On passing its vapour through a red-hot tube, it decomposes with production of acetylene, ethylene, propylene, and other compounds. Of these, tertiary 1-Pentanol has been the most difficult to obtain, its synthesis having first been reported in 1891, by L. Tissier (Comptes Rendus, 1891, 112, p. 1065) by the reduction of a mixture of trimethyl acetic acid and trimethylacetyl chloride with sodium amalgam. It is oxidized by chromic acid to isovaleraldehyde, and it forms crystalline addition compounds with calcium chloride and tin(IV) chloride. When pure, it is nontoxic, while the impure product is toxic.

Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Thus, isopentanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. Isopentanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Isopentanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Isopentanol is an alcoholic, banana, and burnt tasting compound. Isopentanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within milk (cow). Isopentanol has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as chinese cinnamons, grapefruits, walnuts, wild leeks, and spearmints. This could make isopentanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Isopentanol is one of several isomers of amyl alcohol. Isopentanol is the major higher chain alcohol in alcoholic beverages and is present in cider, mead, beer, wine, and spirits to varying degrees, being obtained by the fermentation of starches. Isopentanol, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with the diseases such as ulcerative colitis; isopentanol has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Isopentanol is a metabolite found in Escherichia (PMID:18676713).

Methyl tert-butyl ether (BioCAD00000014022)
Formula: C5H12O (Exact Mass: 88.0888)

Methyl-tert-butyl ether, also known as tert-butyl methyl ether, methyl t-butyl ether or MTBE, is classified as a member of the dialkyl ethers. Dialkyl ethers are organic compounds containing the dialkyl ether functional group, with the formula ROR', where R and R' are alkyl groups. Methyl-tert-butyl ether is considered to be soluble (in water) and basic. It is used as a gasoline additive. Exposure may occur by breathing air contaminated with auto exhaust or gasoline fumes while refueling autos. Respiratory irritation, dizziness, and disorientation have been reported by some motorists and occupationally exposed workers. Acute (short-term) exposure of humans to methyl tert-butyl ether also has occurred during its use as a medical treatment to dissolve cholesterol gallstones. Chronic (long-term) inhalation exposure to methyl-tert-butyl ether has resulted in central nervous system (CNS) effects, respiratory irritation, liver and kidney effects, and decreased body weight gain in animals. United States Environmental Protection Agency has not classified methyl-tert-butyl ether with respect to potential carcinogenicity. (ChemoSummarizer)
