2-Mercaptophenol

Description:

2-Mercaptophenol, also known as o-mercaptophenol or o-hydroxythiophenol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a thiol group (-SH) attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular formula is C6H6OS, and it features a phenolic structure that contributes to its reactivity and solubility in polar solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of rotten eggs due to the thiol group. 2-Mercaptophenol is known for its antioxidant properties and is used in various applications, including as a reagent in organic synthesis, in the production of certain dyes, and as a stabilizer in rubber and plastics. It is also utilized in the pharmaceutical industry for its potential biological activities. However, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it can be toxic and irritating to the skin and eyes. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with 2-mercaptophenol.

2-Hydroxybenzenethiol

CAS: 1121-24-0

2-Hydroxybenzenethiol is an analytical reagent that reacts with oxygen to form a fluorescent complex. It is used for the detection of infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis and other bacterial infections. 2-Hydroxybenzenethiol is also used in analytical chemistry as a reaction solution to study the oxidation of organic compounds. The compound has been shown to react with nitrogen atoms in certain groups, such as p2, by forming chelate ligands. This compound can be prepared by reacting hydrochloric acid with molybdenum (Mo), which has been electrochemically coated with a hydroxyl group on one side and a hydroxy group on the other. The Mo acts as a model system for studying intramolecular hydrogen bonding between two hydroxy groups that are separated by one carbon atom.
