In

enzymology, an octanol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.73) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

1-octanol + NAD+ 1-octanal + NADH + H+

Thus, the two

.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is octanol:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called 1-octanol dehydrogenase.
