Benzenethiol, potassium salt (1:1)

Description:
Benzenethiol, potassium salt (1:1), also known as potassium benzenethiolate, is an organosulfur compound characterized by the presence of a thiol group (-SH) attached to a benzene ring, with a potassium ion balancing the negative charge of the thiolate. This compound typically appears as a white to light yellow solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols due to the ionic nature of the potassium salt. It is often used in organic synthesis as a nucleophile in various reactions, including the formation of thioethers and in the preparation of other sulfur-containing compounds. The compound exhibits typical thiol reactivity, including oxidation to disulfides and participation in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as thiols can have strong odors and may be toxic or irritating. Overall, benzenethiol, potassium salt is a valuable reagent in both academic and industrial chemistry settings.
