Octadecyl 3-mercaptopropanoate

Description:
Octadecyl 3-mercaptopropanoate, with the CAS number 31778-15-1, is an organic compound characterized by its long hydrophobic octadecyl chain and a thiol functional group. This substance is typically used as a surfactant or a coupling agent in various applications, including polymer chemistry and materials science. Its structure features a propanoate group that provides reactivity, while the octadecyl chain imparts hydrophobic properties, making it suitable for modifying surfaces or enhancing compatibility between different materials. The presence of the mercapto group allows for potential thiol-ene or thiol-disulfide reactions, which can be utilized in cross-linking or functionalizing surfaces. Octadecyl 3-mercaptopropanoate is generally soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as thiol compounds can have specific reactivity and toxicity profiles. Overall, this compound is valuable in various industrial and research applications due to its unique chemical properties.
