Best Answer

In the modern IUPAC Nomenclature there is no such substance. It is either butan-1-ol or butan-2-ol. butan-3-ol is the equivalent to butan-2-ol , by counting the carbons from the right hand end. Similarly, there is no such substance as butan-4-ol; it is equivalent to butan-1-ol.

Structurally

butan-1-ol is CH3CH2CH2CH2OH

butan-2-ol is CH3CH2CH(OH)CH3

The molecular formula for 1-propanol is C3H8O in the simplest of the common ways of writing it. A formula version that emphasizes functionality would be C3H7OH.
