Iso-Butanol, also known as isobutyl alcohol or 2-methyl-1-propanol, is a clear, colourless, and flammable liquid with a slightly sweet odour. It is a four-carbon alcohol that is primarily used as a solvent in various industries such as chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and coatings.

Iso-Butanol is a versatile chemical compound that is often used as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals including isobutyl acetate, isobutyl methacrylate, and isobutyl nitrite. It is also used as a fuel additive and as a solvent for lacquers, varnishes, and resins.

In addition to its industrial uses, Iso-Butanol is also used as a flavouring agent and as a solvent in the food and beverage industry. It is commonly found in certain alcoholic beverages, such as whisky and beer, and is used to impart a distinctive flavour and aroma.
