Benzothiazole, 2-(3-methylphenyl)- (9CI)

Description:

Benzothiazole, 2-(3-methylphenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 1211-32-1, is an organic compound characterized by a benzothiazole core structure substituted with a 3-methylphenyl group. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to brownish appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. It possesses a molecular formula that reflects its aromatic nature, contributing to its stability and reactivity. Benzothiazoles are known for their applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in dye synthesis. The presence of both the benzene and thiazole rings imparts unique electronic properties, making it useful in the development of materials with specific optical and electronic characteristics. Additionally, compounds in this class may exhibit biological activity, including antimicrobial and antifungal properties, which can be explored for therapeutic applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
