Ethanethiol, 2-(methylamino)-

Description:
Ethanethiol, 2-(methylamino)-, also known as 2-(methylamino)ethanethiol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a thiol (-SH) group and a methylamino (-NH(CH3)2) group attached to a two-carbon ethyl chain. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of rotten cabbage or garlic, which is common among thiols. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, making it versatile in various chemical applications. The presence of the thiol group imparts notable reactivity, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions and form disulfides under oxidative conditions. Additionally, the methylamino group can engage in hydrogen bonding, influencing the compound's physical properties and reactivity. Due to its functional groups, ethanethiol, 2-(methylamino)- may exhibit biological activity and could be of interest in medicinal chemistry and synthetic organic chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its potential toxicity and strong odor.
