4-Heptanethiol, also known as 1-thio-4-heptanol, is an organic compound characterized by its thiol functional group (-SH) attached to a seven-carbon straight-chain alkane. Its molecular formula is C7H16S, and it features a hydrophobic hydrocarbon tail, which contributes to its relatively low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of rotten cabbage or garlic, which is characteristic of many thiols. 4-Heptanethiol is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions due to the presence of the thiol group, making it useful in organic synthesis and as a building block in the production of various chemical compounds. Additionally, it can serve as a flavoring agent or odorant in certain applications. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this substance, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and its vapors may be harmful if inhaled.
