Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Methyl-1-propanol
DescriptionIsobutanol, also known as iso-butyl alcohol or 2-methylpropanol, 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, isobutanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol. Isobutanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to plants to humans. Isobutanol is a bitter, ether, and solvent tasting compound. Isobutanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as grape wine, red wine, and white wine and in a lower concentration in beer, safflowers (Carthamus tinctorius), and sweet oranges (Citrus sinensis). Isobutanol has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as avocados (Persea americana), horned melons (Cucumis metuliferus), common thymes (Thymus vulgaris), american pokeweeds (Phytolacca americana), and roselles (Hibiscus sabdariffa). This could make isobutanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Isobutanol.
