Definition
A colorless alcohol compound with the formula (CH₃)₂CHOH, better known as isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol, used as a disinfectant and solvent.
Etymology
From dimethyl (two methyl groups) + carbinol (a historical term for methanol, CH₃OH, literally 'carbon-hydrogen-oil'). Carbinol comes from carbo- (carbon) + Latin oleum (oil).
Kelly Says
Dimethylcarbinol is the rubbing alcohol you use to disinfect cuts—it's less toxic than ethanol but still kills germs effectively, making it the safe choice for medical and household cleaning.
