(Mercaptoethyl)guanidine

Description:
(Mercaptoethyl)guanidine, with the CAS number 1190-74-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a guanidine group and a mercaptoethyl functional group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups. Its molecular structure features a guanidine moiety, which is known for its basicity and ability to form hydrogen bonds, contributing to its reactivity. The mercaptoethyl group introduces a thiol (-SH) functionality, which can participate in redox reactions and form disulfide bonds, making it useful in various biochemical applications. (Mercaptoethyl)guanidine has been studied for its potential therapeutic properties, particularly in the context of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, due to its ability to influence nitric oxide production and exhibit antioxidant activity. Safety data indicates that, like many thiol-containing compounds, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and respiratory irritation. Overall, (mercaptoethyl)guanidine is a compound of interest in both synthetic and medicinal chemistry.
