AB The  most  commonly  used  volatile  anesthetics  are  desflurane,  sevoflurane,  and  isoflurane.  The  chemical  structures  can  be  classified  as  substituted  halogenated  ethers.  Additionally,  halothane  is  a  substituted  halogenated  alkane,  a  derivative  of  ethane.  Isoflurane  and  enflurane  are  isomers  that  are  methyl  ethyl  ethers.  Desflurane  differs  from  isoflurane  in  the  substitution  of  fluorine  for  a  chlorine  atom,  and  sevoflurane  is  a  methyl  isopropyl  ether.
