Is there alcohol in vanillin?
In answering this question there's a necessity to be precise with terminology, because otherwise "yes," "no," and "what the heck do you mean?" are all valid answers. In the chemistry sense: Vanillin does not contain alcohol, it is an alcohol; that is, it's an organic compound with an -OH group. In the normal person sense: Vanillin itself does not contain alcohol, but vanilla extract does usually contain alcohol; again, to be specific, it usually contains ethyl alcohol, which is what most non-chemists mean when they say "alcohol."

A bleach is a chemical that can remove or lighten color, usually via oxidation. Rubbing alcohol can often be used to remove stains depending on their size. It works best with smaller stains. To remove a stain using rubbing alcohol apply the alcohol to a cotton ball and then rub the stain and the area around it. The rubbing alcohol will help distribute the original color of the clothing so that it begins to cover the stained area. This method is best used on darker colored items. Light colored items or items with larger stains tend not to absorb the color as well.
