CAS 105-09-9: 1,4-Benzenedimethanethiol

Description: 1,4-Benzenedimethanethiol, also known as p-xylylenedithiol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two thiol (-SH) groups attached to a benzene ring at the 1 and 4 positions. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic benzene structure. The presence of thiol groups imparts notable reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and nucleophilic substitution. 1,4-Benzenedimethanethiol is often used in organic synthesis and as a building block in the production of polymers and other chemical compounds. Additionally, it has applications in the field of materials science, particularly in the development of functionalized surfaces and coatings. Due to its thiol content, it can also form metal complexes, which are useful in catalysis and sensor technology. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as thiols can be toxic and irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
