Sure, here are the structural formulas of two named secondary alkanols:

  1. Isopropanol (Isopropyl Alcohol):

    • Chemical Name: 2-Propanol
    • Structural Formula:

      mathematica

    • H
      |
      H - C - OH
      |
      H

  • Butan-2-ol (Secondary Butyl Alcohol):

    • Chemical Name: 2-Butanol
    • Structural Formula:

      mathematica

    • H
      |
      H - C - C - OH
      |
      H

These two compounds are secondary alkanols because the hydroxyl (-OH) group is attached to a carbon atom that is bonded to two other carbon atoms.
