3-Methyl-4-(methylthio)phenol

Description:

3-Methyl-4-(methylthio)phenol, also known by its CAS number 3120-74-9, is an organic compound characterized by a phenolic structure with a methyl group and a methylthio group attached to the aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a solid or viscous liquid and is known for its distinct odor, which can be reminiscent of certain sulfur-containing compounds. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of both the methyl and methylthio groups influences its chemical reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various applications in organic synthesis and as a flavoring or fragrance agent. Additionally, 3-Methyl-4-(methylthio)phenol may exhibit antioxidant properties, which can be of interest in food chemistry and cosmetic formulations. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper safety measures are taken during its use.
