Boutaina
Boutaina means beautiful woman in the Arabic world. She is a critical but at the same time a nice person. She has limited friends, because she choose them very carefully. She can be sometimes bitchy but only at strictly use. She is an open-minded person and make others laugh all the time. Sometimes she can be very asocial, but don't worry it doesn't last long and it means nothing. She loves listening to music.

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.
