:2-Pentanethiol
Description:
2-Pentanethiol, also known as sec-pentanethiol, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C5H12S. It belongs to the class of thiols, characterized by the presence of a sulfhydryl (-SH) group. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive, often unpleasant odor reminiscent of garlic or rotten cabbage, which is typical for many thiols. 2-Pentanethiol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. It has a relatively low boiling point compared to other organic compounds of similar molecular weight, which makes it volatile. The compound is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent and in the synthesis of other chemicals. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in organic synthesis and may be involved in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions are necessary when handling 2-pentanethiol, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and its vapors may be harmful if inhaled.
