1-Pentanol is a linear alcohol. Pentane a next generation alcohol fuel is a promising substitute for conventional gasoline and diesel fuels. Kinetics of thermal decomposition of its isomeric forms (1-pentanol 2-methyl-1-butanol and 3-methyl-1-butanol) have been reported.1-Pentanol is a colorless liquid having a pleasant odor which can be obtained as a product from the process of fractional distillation of mixed alcohols resulting from the chlorination and alkaline hydrolysis of pentane occurs.
