CAS 18143-30-1: 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol

Description: 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol, with the CAS number 18143-30-1, is an organosilicon compound characterized by the presence of a thiol (-SH) functional group and a trimethylsilyl group (Si(CH₃)₃) attached to an ethane backbone. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive sulfurous odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and dichloromethane but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the trimethylsilyl group. The presence of the thiol group makes it a nucleophilic compound, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including thiol-ene reactions and metal coordination. Additionally, 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol can be used as a protecting group for thiols in organic synthesis, enhancing the stability of thiol-containing compounds during reactions. Its unique structure and reactivity make it valuable in synthetic organic chemistry and materials science, particularly in the development of silane-based compounds and functionalized polymers.
