Umehluko phakathi kwe-isopropyl futhisowopropanolamanga esakhiweni sabo samangqamuzana nasezakhiweni. Ngenkathi bobabili bequkethe ama-athomu afanayo ama-athomu nama-athomu e-hydrogen, isakhiwo sawo samakhemikhali sihlukile, siholela ekuzehlukaneni okukhulu ezinhlakeni zabo zomzimba nangamakhemikhali.

I-Isopropyl Alcohol, eyaziwa nangokuthi yi-isopropanol, ingeyomndeni kaotshwala futhi inefomula yamakhemikhali CH3-CH (OH) -CH3. Kuyinto eguquguqukayo, evuthayo, engenamibala enephunga elithile. Amaphondomu kanye nobubi bawo Amanzi Kwenza kube ngamakhemikhali abalulekile ezimboni, ukuthola ukusetshenziswa kwawo emikhakheni ehlukahlukene njenge-solvents, antifrees, kanye nama-ejenti wokuhlanza. I-Sopropanol isetshenziswa futhi njengento eluhlaza yokukhiqizwa kwamanye amakhemikhali.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-isopropyl imele i-hydrocarbon radical (C3H7-), okuyi-ALKYL etholwa yiPropl (C3H8). Kuyi-Isomer yeButane (C4H10) futhi yaziwa nangokuthi yiTertiary Butyl. Ngakolunye uhlangothi i-aphuza utshwala, ngakolunye uhlangothi, kungukutholwa kotshwala kwe-isopropyl. Ngenkathi i-sopropyl Alcohol ineqembu le-hydroxl (-oh) linamathiselwe kulo, i-isopropyl ayinalo i-hydroxyl gerow. Lo mehluko wesakhiwo phakathi kwalezi zinto ezimbili kuholela ekwehlukahlukana okukhulu ezinhlakeni zazo zenyama nangamakhemikhali.

I-Sopropyl Alcohol ayibonakali kabi ngamanzi ngenxa yemvelo yayo ye-polar, kanti i-isopropyl ingekho futhi i-incolulable emanzini. Iqembu le-hydroxyl likhona ku-isopropanol lenza lisebenzele ngokwengeziwe ne-polar kune-isopropyl. Lo mehluko umehluko uthinta ukulekelela kwabo kanye nokungabi bizo ngezinye izinhlanganisela.

Ekuphetheni, ngenkathi i-isopropyl kanye ne-isopropanol iqukethe inani elifanayo lama-athomu e-carbon nama-hydrogen, isakhiwo sawo samakhemikhali siyehluka kakhulu. Ukuba khona kweqembu le-hydroxyl ku-isopropanol kukunikeza umlingiswa we-polar, okwenza kungabonakali kahle ngamanzi. I-ISOPROPYL, ngaphandle kweqembu le-hydroxyl, ayinalo le mpahla. Ngakho-ke, ngenkathi i-sopropanol ithola izinhlelo zokusebenza eziningi zezimboni, ukusetshenziswa kwe-isopropyl kukhawulelwe.
