The article doesn't tells how this product is made. This article is just a stub. Agre22 ( talk) 13:34, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
The refractive index was listed wrong-- it should be 1.399. I made the change, but I don't know how to cite it properly. Here' my source: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/ProductDetail.do?D7=0&N5=SEARCH_CONCAT_PNO%7CBRAND_KEY&N4=B7906%7CSIGMA&N25=0&QS=ON&F=SPEC —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.22.112.79 ( talk) 05:00, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
The solubility in water is not correct. According to the CRC handbook of chemistry and physics, the solubility in water is 73 g.L-1. I will edit this value. Matthieu Roché — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthieu roche ( talk • contribs) 17:31, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Consensus for "1-butanol" ( non-admin closure) ( t · c) buidhe 22:48, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
N-Butanol → 1-Butanol – This page should be moved to be consistent with the nomenclature format used for articles for other straight-chain primary alcohols, such as 1-propanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, and so on. Use of the "n-" prefix is technically incorrect nomenclature, as it is meant to be used with an alkyl group designation (as in n-butyl alcohol) whereas substitutive names take a numeric prefix, as in the proposed name, though "1-" and "n-" are informally used interchangeably. Mdewman6 ( talk) 21:24, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
@ Buidhe: This should be 1-Butanol, not 1-butanol. Wostr ( talk) 17:41, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
Sadly, this move is ill-conceived. The title should be the IUPAC name butan-1-ol and the other isomers should likewise be called by the IUPAC name. When named in this way the chemical structure is more easily understood. The old names, that are still in common use, need to be also listed, as in my edit, which had to be reverted. Petergans ( talk) 08:41, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
What are the criteria for adding other names? If common usage is a criterion, what are acceptable sources of common chemical names? I use n-BuOH as shorthand for 1-Butanol which may or may not be common. Sandcherry ( talk)
Regarding butanol in the other names. The explanation for today's reversion contains the word "normally". That means that this term is potentially ambiguous, which is why it was removed from "other names". Please undo the reversion. Petergans ( talk) 17:01, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
This name is not consistent with either IUPAC or WP guidelines. A web search for it produced no hits. It should be deleted. Petergans ( talk) 08:54, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Your stated objections may or may not be consistent with the views of other editors. Obtaining consensus on Other Names guidelines in a forum frequented by experienced organic chemistry editors is suggested. Industrial and academic chemists and chemical engineers may have different perspectives. Would you like to propose a forum to discuss your concerns? Sandcherry ( talk) 19:13, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Methylolpropane is listed in the NIST Chemistry Web Book ( https://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?Name=1-butanol) and supplier web sites as an alternate name for 1-Butanol. Sandcherry ( talk) 18:55, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
It appears that it is not possible to reach a consensus. I will not make any further efforts to improve the quality of this article. Petergans ( talk) 19:47, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
This name is wrong. The compound is an alcohol. All alcohols, by definition, contain an hydroxyl group. Petergans ( talk) 09:23, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Petergans: Why did you revert my edit which moved "Butan-1-ol" from the SystematicName
parameter to the PIN
parameter? I generally prefer the latter, since IUPAC has no defined concept of a "systematic IUPAC name". I'd add a reference to the Blue Book, but it only has examples of derivatives of this compound.
