General description

3-Methyl-1-pentanol is a part of the fragrance structural group of branched chain saturated alcohols.

Application

3-Methyl-1-pentanol ihas been used to study the headspace solid-phase dynamic extraction. This was coupled to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (HS-SPDE-GC/MS) for the trace determination of polar volatile organic compounds (PVOC) from aqueous matrices.
