1-Octanol exists in the essential oils such as bitter orange, pomelo, sweet orange, green tea, violet leaves or in free state, or in the form of acetate, butyrate and isovalerate. In industrial production, octanal can be reduced or prepared by using octanoic acid in coconut oil. It can also be prepared by carbonyl synthesis with heptene -1 as raw material.

After cobalt removal, they are hydrogenated under pressure with nickel catalyst to form primary alcohols.
