2-Methoxy-1,3-bis(methylthio)propane

Description:

2-Methoxy-1,3-bis(methylthio)propane, with the CAS number 31805-84-2, is an organic compound characterized by its unique structure that includes a methoxy group and two methylthio groups attached to a propane backbone. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic methylthio groups. The presence of the methoxy group contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. Additionally, the methylthio groups can influence the compound's electronic properties and steric hindrance, affecting its behavior in chemical processes. 2-Methoxy-1,3-bis(methylthio)propane may be used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds.
