2244-Tetramethyl-3-t-butyl-pentane-3-ol is an organic compound with formula C13H28O or ((H3C-)3C-)3COH. It is an alcohol whose molecule can be viewed as a tridecane isomer (2244-tetramethyl-3-t-butyl-pentane) where the central hydrogen has been replaced by a hydroxyl group -OH.The bulky tert-butyl groups (H3C-)3C- groups attached to the central carbon prevent the hydroxyl group from forming the hydrogen bonds that are characteristic of most alcohols.
