CAS 1462-52-8: 3-(Dodecylthio)propanoic acid

Description: 3-(Dodecylthio)propanoic acid, with the CAS number 1462-52-8, is an organic compound characterized by a long hydrophobic dodecyl chain and a carboxylic acid functional group. This structure imparts both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, making it amphiphilic. The presence of the dodecylthio group enhances its surfactant properties, allowing it to interact with various surfaces and interfaces, which is beneficial in applications such as emulsification and stabilization in formulations. The compound typically appears as a viscous liquid or solid, depending on temperature, and is soluble in organic solvents while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to the long hydrocarbon chain. Its chemical behavior is influenced by the carboxylic acid group, which can participate in acid-base reactions and form salts or esters. Additionally, 3-(Dodecylthio)propanoic acid can be used in the synthesis of various derivatives and may find applications in materials science, pharmaceuticals, and as a surfactant in industrial processes.
