The 57 pages that link to Ethanol, each with the reason it gives.

• Molecular formulaBroader topic: Its formula contrasts with dimethyl ether’s identical atom counts despite different connectivity.

• AlkeneRelated: Industrial hydration of ethylene provides one route to produce ethanol.

• Acetic acidCompared with: Ethanol is the alcohol that acetic acid bacteria oxidize to make acetic acid.

• Hydroxyl groupBroader topic: Its single hydroxyl group gives ethanol strong water affinity and characteristic alcohol reactions.

• AlcoholBroader topic: Ethanol is a prominent fuel and solvent as well as the alcohol in alcoholic drinks.

• Alcoholic fermentationRelated: It is the pathway’s main reduced product and accumulates in alcoholic drinks.

• MethanolCompared with: Ethanol is a familiar alcohol with different toxicity and uses despite its structural resemblance.

• PerfumeRelated: It dilutes aromatic materials and helps spread them during application.

• VinegarRelated: It supplies the alcohol that bacteria transform into acetic acid.

• Latent heat of vaporizationBroader topic: Its vaporization energy differs from water's, shaping evaporation and distillation behavior.

• EthyleneRelated: Hydration of ethylene provides an important industrial route to ethanol.

• Structural isomerismRelated: Its formula is shared by dimethyl ether, a functional group isomer.

• BeerRelated: Ethanol is beer’s principal intoxicating compound.

• EthaneCompared with: Ethanol has ethane’s carbon count but includes oxygen and has very different properties.

• Hand hygieneRelated: Ethanol is one active ingredient in hand rubs that inactivate many microbes.

• AcetaldehydeRelated: Oxidation of ethanol produces acetaldehyde as an intermediate.

• PropaneCompared with: Ethanol is a liquid fuel with different storage, combustion, and renewable-production pathways.

• Alcohol by volumeBroader topic: ABV counts ethanol, not every substance in a beverage that may be called an alcohol.

• Alcohol dehydrogenaseBroader topic: It is a common substrate for mammalian and microbial alcohol dehydrogenases.

• Alcohol intoxicationBroader topic: Ethanol is the substance whose concentration drives alcohol intoxication.

• Ethyl acetateRelated: Its ethyl group forms the other side of ethyl acetate.

• Flammable liquidBroader topic: Its vapor can ignite readily, including in concentrated alcoholic solutions.

• Hydration reactionBroader topic: Industrial hydration of ethene is one route to producing ethanol.

• Dimethyl etherCompared with: Ethanol is a liquid oxygenated fuel, whereas dimethyl ether is a pressurized gas.

• Enthalpy of vaporizationBroader topic: Its hydrogen bonding and molecular size produce a vaporization enthalpy distinct from water’s.

• Fortified wineRelated: Distilled ethanol raises fortified wine’s alcoholic strength.

• Acetic acid fermentationRelated: It is the substrate that acetic acid bacteria oxidize.

• BrandyRelated: Distillation increases ethanol concentration in the liquid used to make brandy.

• Isopropyl alcoholCompared with: Ethanol is a structurally related alcohol often compared with isopropyl alcohol in disinfectants.

• MiscibilityBroader topic: Its complete miscibility with water supports beverages, formulations, and fuel blends.

• Benzalkonium chlorideCompared with: Unlike benzalkonium chloride, ethanol acts rapidly but evaporates and leaves little residual activity.

• Blood alcohol concentrationBroader topic: BAC specifically quantifies ethanol in blood, rather than all compounds called alcohols.

• 1-ButanolCompared with: Compared with ethanol, 1-butanol is less water-soluble and has greater energy content per unit volume.

• AcetonitrileCompared with: Ethanol is a protic alternative whose solvent strength and chromatographic selectivity differ.

• Alcoholic beverageBroader topic: It is the intoxicating compound that defines this category of beverages.

• Hand sanitizerRelated: Many hand sanitizers use ethanol to disrupt microbial proteins and membranes.

• Structural isomerRelated: Its formula matches dimethyl ether despite having a different functional group.

• VodkaBroader topic: It is vodka’s principal alcohol and determines its proof when diluted.

• EthylamineRelated: Ethanol can serve as a feedstock for ethylamine manufacture.

• MouthwashRelated: Some mouthwashes use ethanol to dissolve flavoring ingredients and contribute to antimicrobial action.

• 1-PropanolCompared with: Ethanol has one fewer carbon atom and different physical properties despite sharing an alcohol group.

• Cetyl alcoholCompared with: Its short chain and volatility contrast with cetyl alcohol’s waxy, nonvolatile behavior.

• Haloform reactionRelated: Ethanol oxidizes under iodine-test conditions to acetaldehyde, which gives iodoform.

• IsobutanolCompared with: Fuel comparisons often weigh isobutanol’s higher carbon count against ethanol’s established use.

• DepressantBroader topic: It is a widely used depressant with effects on several neural signaling systems.

• Ethyl formateRelated: Its ethyl group forms the alcohol-derived part of ethyl formate.

• FlambéRelated: Ethanol supplies the flammable vapor that sustains a flambé flame.

• IodoformRelated: Under test conditions, ethanol can oxidize to acetaldehyde and produce iodoform.

• NitromethaneCompared with: Its familiar use as a fuel contrasts with nitromethane’s specialized high-power role.

• Sodium ethoxideRelated: Ethanol is the conjugate acid formed when ethoxide accepts a proton and is often its solvent.
