Metabolite Identification
Common NameOctanol
DescriptionOctanol occurs naturally in the form of esters in some essential oils. Octanol and water are immiscible. The distribution of a compound between water and octanol is used to calculate the partition coefficient (logP) of that molecule. Water/octanol partitioning is a good approximation of the partitioning between the cytosol and lipid membranes of living systems.(wikipedia). A colorless, slightly viscous liquid used as a defoaming or wetting agent. It is also used as a solvent for protective coatings, waxes, and oils, and as a raw material for plasticizers. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 5th ed). It is also one of many compounds derived from tobacco and tobacco smoke and shown to increase the permeability of the membranes of animal lung fibroblasts (PMID 7466833 ).
