Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Methylpropan-2-ol132
DescriptionTert-Butyl alcohol (TBA), also called tert-butanol or t-butanol, is the simplest tertiary alcohol, with a formula of (CH3)3COH (sometimes represented as t-BuOH). It is one of the four isomers of butanol. It is unique among the isomers of butanol because it tends to be a solid at room temperature, with a melting point slightly above 25 °C. It has a camphor-like odor and is miscible with water, ethanol and diethyl ether. tert-Butyl alcohol is derived commercially from isobutane as a coproduct of propylene oxide production. It can also be produced by the catalytic hydration of isobutylene, or by a Grignard reaction between acetone and methylmagnesium chloride. tert-Butyl alcohol is used as a solvent, ethanol denaturant, paint remover ingredient, and gasoline octane booster. tert-Butyl alcohol is found in guava and ginger and it has also been identified in beer and chickpeas.
