CAS 17624-07-6
:6-Mercaptonicotinic acid
Description:
6-Mercaptonicotinic acid, with the CAS number 17624-07-6, is a thiol derivative of nicotinic acid, characterized by the presence of a mercapto (-SH) group at the 6-position of the pyridine ring. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents, which is indicative of its polar nature due to the carboxylic acid and thiol functional groups. It exhibits properties typical of both thiols and carboxylic acids, including the ability to form hydrogen bonds and participate in redox reactions. 6-Mercaptonicotinic acid is known for its potential applications in biochemistry and medicinal chemistry, particularly as a ligand in coordination chemistry and as a precursor in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds. Additionally, its thiol group can engage in nucleophilic reactions, making it useful in various chemical transformations. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as thiols can be malodorous and may pose health risks if not managed properly.
