3-(Methylthio)propyl acetate

Description:
3-(Methylthio)propyl acetate, with the CAS number 16630-55-0, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from propyl alcohol and acetic acid. This compound features a methylthio group, which contributes to its unique properties and potential applications. Typically, it appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor, making it useful in flavoring and fragrance formulations. The presence of the methylthio group can enhance its reactivity and solubility in various organic solvents. In terms of physical properties, it generally has a moderate boiling point and density, typical of esters. Its chemical behavior includes susceptibility to hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions, leading to the formation of the corresponding alcohol and acid. 3-(Methylthio)propyl acetate may also exhibit low toxicity, but safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as with all chemical substances. Its applications can extend to the food industry, perfumery, and potentially in synthetic organic chemistry as an intermediate.
