The compound that releases hydroxide ions in an aqueous solution would be a base.

What are bases?

Bases are substances that when ionized in water, produce hydroxide ions as the only negative ion.

Bases are as opposed to acids. The latter produces hydrogen ions as the only positive ion when ionized in water. For example, sodium hydroxide ionizes in aqueous solutions as follows:
