1-Heptanethiol

Description:

1-Heptanethiol, with the CAS number 1639-09-4, is a straight-chain aliphatic thiol characterized by the presence of a seven-carbon chain (heptane) with a thiol (-SH) functional group at one end. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of garlic or rotten onions, which is typical for many thiols. It is slightly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the long hydrocarbon chain. 1-Heptanethiol has a relatively low boiling point compared to larger thiols, and it exhibits typical thiol reactivity, including oxidation to disulfides and participation in nucleophilic substitution reactions. This compound is often used in organic synthesis, as a flavoring agent, and in the study of olfactory responses due to its strong odor. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in the synthesis of various chemical compounds and materials. Safety precautions are necessary when handling 1-heptanethiol due to its strong odor and potential irritant properties.
