CAS 13290-16-9

2-[(4-Methylphenyl)thio]ethanol

Description:

2-[(4-Methylphenyl)thio]ethanol, with the CAS number 13290-16-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiol group (-SH) and an ethanol moiety. This compound features a 4-methylphenyl group attached to a sulfur atom, which is further connected to a two-carbon ethanol chain. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the thiol group imparts certain reactivity, making it susceptible to oxidation and capable of forming disulfides. This compound is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the hydrophilic nature of the ethanol portion. Its chemical structure allows for potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, which could be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as thiols can be toxic and have strong odors.
