DescriptionIsohexanol, also known as 4-methylpentanol or isohexyl 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, isohexanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. Isohexanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
