Hexanol vs. Hexane — What's the Difference?

Hexanol may refer to any of the following isomeric organic compounds with the formula C6H13OH:

Hexane () is an organic compound, a straight-chain alkane with six carbon atoms and has the molecular formula C6H14. Hexane is a significant constituent of gasoline.

(organic compound) Any of many isomers of the saturated aliphatic alcohol having six carbon atoms

A colourless liquid hydrocarbon of the alkane series, present in petroleum spirit.

Any of several isomeric colorless flammable liquid hydrocarbons, C6H14, derived from the fractional distillation of petroleum and used as a solvent and as a working fluid in low-temperature thermometers.

(organic compound) Any of five isomeric aliphatic hydrocarbons, C₆H₁₄. They are colorless, volatile liquids.

Any one of five hydrocarbons, C6H14, of the paraffin series. They are colorless, volatile liquids, and are so called because the molecule has six carbon atoms.

A colorless flammable liquid alkane derived from petroleum and used as a solvent
