N-butanol and butanol are common organic compounds with some differences in chemical structure and properties. The chemical name of n-butanol is 1-butanol, with the chemical formula C4H10O. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is widely used as a solvent and reaction intermediate in industry. Butanol refers to one of the four isomers, including n-butanol, isobutanol, and their stereoisomers. N-butanol is the simplest type, while the other three are obtained by hydrogenation on the basis of 1-butene

 In terms of chemical structure, the hydroxyl group (- OH) in the molecule of n-butanol is connected to carbon atoms at different positions, while butanol is a chain like structure composed of four carbon atoms

 In terms of physical properties, the boiling point of n-butanol is 117.7 degrees Celsius, and its solubility increases with increasing temperature. The boiling point of butanol is 82 degrees Celsius, presenting as a colorless and volatile liquid. In terms of chemical properties, n-butanol and butanol also have some differences in the reaction. Due to differences in chemical structures, they exhibit different characteristics in reactions such as oxidation and dehydration

 In addition, their applications in the industrial and chemical fields are also different. N-butanol is mainly used as an organic solvent, refrigerant, etc; Butanol can be used to synthesize other organic compounds, such as butyric acid, butyraldehyde, etc. Overall, although n-butanol and butanol have similar names, there are differences in their chemical structure, physical properties, and chemical properties, each with specific uses and application areas.
