Allyl alcohol (IUPAC name: prop-2-en-1-ol) is an organic compound with the structural formula CH₂=CHCH₂OH. Like many alcohols, it is a water-soluble, colourless liquid. It is more toxic than typical small alcohols. Allyl alcohol is used as a precursor to many specialized compounds such as flame-resistant materials, drying oils, and plasticizers. Allyl alcohol is the smallest representative of the allylic alcohols.
