Propanoic acid, 3-mercapto-, 3-methoxybutyl ester

Description:
Propanoic acid, 3-mercapto-, 3-methoxybutyl ester, identified by the CAS number 27431-40-9, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is formed from the reaction of propanoic acid and 3-mercapto-3-methoxybutanol. This compound typically exhibits a moderate molecular weight and is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. It possesses a distinct odor, characteristic of esters, which can be fruity or sweet. The presence of the mercapto group (-SH) suggests that it may have thiol-like properties, potentially contributing to its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species. The methoxy group (-OCH3) enhances its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its polarity. In terms of applications, such compounds are often explored in the fields of organic synthesis, fragrance formulation, and possibly as intermediates in the production of various chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as esters can vary in their toxicity and reactivity.
