Metabolite Identification
Common NameOctanol
DescriptionOctanol, also known as 1-hydroxyoctane or 1-oktanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty alcohols. These are aliphatic alcohols consisting of a chain of a least six carbon atoms. Thus, octanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Octanol.
