No bueno

An American expression for "not good". Bueno means good in Spanish but avoid using this expression in front of anyone who actually speaks Spanish as it's not grammatically correct and people will instantly know that you are an American trying to look cultured. Proper Spanish for "not good" would be "No está bien"

2-methyl-2-butanol

2-methyl-2-butanol is a tertiary alcohol which is 20 times stronger than regular ethanol (alcohol). 2-methyl-2-butanol doesn't produce aldehydes as a metabolite and instead, produces 2-methyl-2-butanyl gluconoride and 2-methyl-2,3-butanediol. Meanwhile, ethanol produces acetaldehyde, a moderately toxic aldehyde, before becoming the harmless acetic acid. As a result, there is no hangover from 2-methyl-2-butanol but there is a temporary hangover from ethanol. The dose range of 2-methyl-2-butanol is 2ml to 12ml+.
2-methyl-2-butanol can be made from ethyl chloride by the grignard reaction from an ethyl magnesium chloride intermediate reacting with acetone and then a hydrochloric acid work-up.
