CAS 227456-27-1: 3-Mercapto-2-methylpentan-1-ol

Description: 3-Mercapto-2-methylpentan-1-ol, with the CAS number 227456-27-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiol (-SH) group and an alcohol (-OH) group. This compound features a five-carbon chain with a methyl group at the second carbon and a thiol group at the third carbon, contributing to its unique properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, distinctive odor, often described as sulfurous or reminiscent of garlic, which is common for thiols. The presence of both functional groups allows for potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a flavoring agent in food products. Additionally, its reactivity can facilitate various chemical transformations, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Due to its sulfur content, it may also exhibit antioxidant properties. Safety considerations should be taken into account when handling this compound, as thiols can be irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
