3-Methoxythioanisole

Description:

3-Methoxythioanisole, also known by its CAS number 2388-74-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH₃) and a thioether group (-S-) attached to an aromatic ring. This compound features a benzene ring substituted with a methoxy group at the meta position relative to the thioether group. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. 3-Methoxythioanisole is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fragrances. Its chemical properties include reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, making it a valuable building block in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

CAS: 2388-74-1

3-Methoxythioanisole is a transfer catalyst that catalyzes the transfer of hydrogen peroxide from an alkali metal salt to an organic substrate. The reaction proceeds via a monoprotonated intermediate. 3-Methoxythioanisole can be used for the synthesis of esters, amides and nitriles. 3-Methoxythioanisole is also a hydrophilic catalyst and can be used in phase transfer catalysis. This compound is derived from the oxidation of thiophene by hydrogen peroxide, which produces a polyoxometalate as a byproduct. 3-Methoxythioanisole has been shown to be effective in catalyzing reactions between ammonium salts and phosphotungstate, yielding ammonium tungstate or hydroxylammonium tungstate as products.
