16-MERCAPTO-1-HEXADECANOL

Description:

16-Mercapto-1-hexadecanol, with the CAS number 114896-32-1, is a long-chain aliphatic thiol characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a thiol group (-SH) at opposite ends of a 16-carbon chain. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It exhibits properties common to thiols, such as a strong, often unpleasant odor, and is known for its reactivity, particularly in forming disulfide bonds when oxidized. The hydroxyl group contributes to its hydrophilicity, allowing it to interact with polar solvents and surfaces, while the long hydrophobic carbon chain enhances its compatibility with non-polar environments. This dual nature makes 16-mercapto-1-hexadecanol useful in various applications, including as a coupling agent in surface modification, in the synthesis of nanoparticles, and in the formulation of specialty chemicals. Its ability to self-assemble on surfaces also makes it valuable in nanotechnology and materials science.
