CAS 1195-14-8: 2-Methylbenzothiophene

Description: 2-Methylbenzothiophene is an organic compound characterized by its fused ring structure, which consists of a benzene ring and a thiophene ring. This compound features a methyl group attached to the benzothiophene framework, specifically at the second position of the benzene ring. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. The presence of the sulfur atom in the thiophene ring contributes to its unique chemical properties, including potential reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. 2-Methylbenzothiophene is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical applications. It is often studied for its role in organic synthesis and as a potential building block in the development of more complex molecules. Additionally, due to its aromatic nature, it may exhibit interesting electronic properties, which can be explored in materials science and organic electronics. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as with many organic chemicals, due to potential health hazards.
