hexane-1-thiol

Description:

Hexane-1-thiol, also known as 1-hexanethiol, is an organic compound characterized by its straight-chain structure consisting of a six-carbon alkane with a thiol (-SH) functional group at one end. This compound is a colorless liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of garlic or rotten onions, which is typical for thiols. Hexane-1-thiol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. It has a relatively low boiling point compared to other thiols, which contributes to its volatility. Hexane-1-thiol is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent, in the synthesis of other chemicals, and as a reagent in organic chemistry. Additionally, it is known for its role in the production of odorants for natural gas, serving as a safety measure to detect leaks. Due to its potential toxicity and irritant properties, proper handling and safety precautions are essential when working with this compound.
