1-Heptanol Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Heptyl alcohol has a faint, aromatic, fatty odor and a pungent, spicy taste. It may be synthesized by reduction of enanthic aldehyde, which is a distillation product of castor oil.
Chemical Properties
Heptyl alcohol has a fragrant, woody, heavy, oily, faint, aromatic, fatty odor and a pungent, spicy taste.
Occurrence
Reported found in a few essential oils, hyacinth, violet leaves, Litsea zeylanica Also reported found in apple, banana, citrus peel oils, orange juice, bilberry, cranberry, blueberry, other berries, currants, melon, papaya, peach, pear, pineapple, asparagus, peas, potato, mustard, cheeses, butter, milk, meats, hop oil, beer, cognac, rum, bourbon whiskey, grape wines, cocoa, tea, flberts, pecans, peanuts, soybeans, passion fruit juice, olive, macadamia nuts, mango, tamarind, fgs, cardamom, rice, calamus, dill, corn, malt, kiwifruit, truffe, nectarine, crab, crayfsh, clams and other sources
Uses
1-Heptanol, is used in the fragrance industry due to its pleasant smell.
Production Methods
1-Heptanol is produced by reacting hexenes with carbon monoxide in the oxo process or by the catalytic reduction of heptaldehyde. It has little commercial value except in fragrances and as an artificial flavoring agent.
Preparation
By reduction of enanthic aldehyde, which is a distillation product of castor oil.
Definition
ChEBI: 1-heptanol is an alkyl alcohol that is heptane in which a hydrogen of one of the methyl groups is substituted by a hydroxy group. It has been isolated from Capillipedium parviflorum. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a fragrance and a flavouring agent. It is a primary alcohol, an alkyl alcohol and a volatile organic compound. It derives from a hydride of a heptane.
Aroma threshold values
Detection: 3 ppb.

Reactivity Profile
Heptan-1-ol is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.
Health Hazard
1-Heptanol is low toxicity; liquid may irritate eyes.
Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
Biochem/physiol Actions
Taste at 1-10 ppm
Purification Methods
Shake the alcohol with successive lots of alkaline KMnO4 until the colour persists for 15minutes, then dry it with K2CO3 or CaO, and fractionally distil it. [Beilstein 1 IV 1731.]
