Abstract: Coffman, Kundu and Wootters presented the 3-tangle of three qubits in [Phys. Rev. A 61, 052306 (2000)]. Wong and Christensen extended the 3-tangle to even number of qubits, known as n-tangle [Phys. Rev. A 63, 044301 (2001)]. In this paper, we propose a generalization of the 3-tangle to any odd n-qubit pure states and call it the n-tangle of odd n qubits. We show that the n-tangle of odd n qubits is invariant under permutations of the qubits, and is an entanglement monotone. The n-tangle of odd n qubits can be considered as a natural entanglement measure of any odd n-qubit pure states.
