It is a colourless liquid with a distinctive aroma. It is one of 8 isomeric alcohols with the formula C5H11OH. It is used as a solvent, a biological drying agent and in the synthesis of some fragrance compounds. It is also a common component of fusel alcohols (fusel oils), the undesirable byproducts of alcoholic fermentation. Preparation 1-Pentanol is prepared from 1-butene by hydroformylation followed by hydrogenation of the resulting pentanal.10.1002/14356007.a19_049.pub2 Pentanols Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2011 Lappe Peter Hofmann Thomas 9783527303854 CH3CH2CH\dCH2 + CO + H2 -> CH3CH2CH2CH2CHO CH3CH2CH2CH2CHO + H2 -> CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH Pentanol can be prepared by fractional distillation of fusel oil. To reduce the use of fossil fuels, research is underway to develop cost-effective methods of producing (chemically identical) bio-pentanol with fermentation.Cann Anthony F.

The ester formed from 1-pentanol and butyric acid is pentyl butyrate, which has an apricot-like odor. The ester formed from 1-pentanol and acetic acid is amyl acetate (also called pentyl acetate), which has a banana-like odor. It is a precursor to dipentyl zinc dithiophosphates, which are used in froth flotation. In 2014, a study was conducted comparing the performance of diesel fuel blends with various proportions of pentanol as an additive. While gaseous emissions increased with higher concentrations of pentanol, particulate emissions decreased.Wei, Liangjie & Cheung, C.s & Huang, Zuohua. (2014). Effect of n-pentanol addition on the combustion, performance and emission characteristics of a direct-injection diesel engine. Energy. 70. 10.1016/j.energy.2014.03.106. Pentanol is often used as a solvent.
