2-Methyl-1-propanol, also known as isobutanol or isobutyl alcohol, is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH3)2CHCH2OH. It is a colorless liquid with a characteristic smell that occurs in natural products as well as in fusel oils.
Butanol, also known as n-butanol or butan-1-ol, is a primary alcohol with the chemical formula C4H9OH. It's a colorless liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor, similar to that of burnt whiskey.
1,2-Butanediol, also known as 1,2-butylene glycol, is an organic compound (diol) with the formula HOCH2(HO)CHCH2CH3. It is a colorless, viscous liquid with a slight odor.
2,3-Butanediol (also known as 2,3-butylene glycol) is an organic compound with the formula C₄H₁₀O₂. It is a colorless, viscous liquid that is miscible with water in all proportions. 2,3-Butanediol is a vic-diol, which means that the two hydroxyl groups are located on adjacent carbon atoms.
1,4-Butynediol or 2-butyne-1,4-diol is an organic compound that is both an alkyne and a diol with the formula C4H6O2. It is a colorless, hygroscopic solid that is soluble in water and polar organic solvents.
1,3-Butadiene is a colorless gas with a gasoline-like odor. It is the simplest member of the series of conjugated dienes, which contain the structure C=C-C=C, the C being carbon.
Boron nitride (BN) is a compound formed by the 1:1 union of boron and nitrogen (elemental neighbors of carbon in the periodic table). Much like carbon, boron nitride exists in multiple crystalline forms, known as allotropes, each mirroring the structure of a specific carbon allotrope.
Boron carbide is a member of the important nonmetallic hard materials group alongside alumina, silicon carbide, and diamond with the chemical formula B4C. It is a black ceramic covalent material.
Boron is a nonmetallic element found in the third main group of the periodic table with the symbol B. It is not found free in nature, but rather bound to oxygen. Boron occurs as orthoboric acid and as alkali-metal and alkaline earth metal borates.
Boric acid is a hydrate of boric oxide, existing as both the trihydrate orthoboric acid, H3BO3 (B2O3·3 H2O), and the monohydrate metaboric acid, HBO2 (B2O3·H2O). Orthoboric acid is the commonly encountered commercial form, often simply referred to as boric acid.
Boron trioxide, also known as diboron trioxide, is the compound with the chemical formula B₂O₃. It is a colorless, transparent solid that is almost always glassy (amorphous), but can be crystallized with great difficulty.
Benzylamine is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H5CH2NH2. It is a colorless liquid with a characteristic amine odor. It is a primary amine with a benzene ring attached to it.
