3-(Butylthio)propanoic acid

Description:
3-(Butylthio)propanoic acid, with the CAS number 22002-73-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a propanoic acid backbone substituted with a butylthio group at the third carbon position. This compound features both a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) and a thioether functional group, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the butylthio group enhances its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its solubility in organic solvents while limiting its solubility in water. This compound may exhibit moderate to low toxicity, and its reactivity can be attributed to the acidic nature of the carboxylic group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, 3-(Butylthio)propanoic acid may have applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, or as a chemical intermediate in the production of other compounds. Proper handling and safety measures should be observed due to its potential reactivity and toxicity.
