1-Butanol (Glass Distilled)

1-Butanol, also known as n-butanol or butyl alcohol, is a four-carbon straight-chain alcohol with the chemical formula C4H9OH. It is a clear, colourless liquid with a strong, somewhat sweet odour. 1-Butanol is soluble in water, alcohol, and many organic solvents, making it a versatile solvent for a range of applications.

1-Butanol is used in the production of a variety of chemicals, including butyl acetate, butyl acrylate, and plasticisers. It is also used as a solvent in many industries, including coatings, textiles, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, 1-butanol is used as a fuel additive and a solvent for the extraction of natural products, such as essential oils and flavours.

In the laboratory, 1-butanol is often used as a reagent or solvent for organic synthesis. It is also used as a reactant in the production of esters and other organic compounds.

It's important to handle 1-butanol with care, as it is flammable and can be harmful if ingested or inhaled. Proper safety precautions should be taken when using 1-butanol, including using it in a well-ventilated area and wearing appropriate protective equipment.
