3-Methylcyclohexanethiol is an organic compound characterized by its thiol functional group (-SH) attached to a cyclohexane ring that has a methyl group at the 3-position. This compound has a molecular formula of C7H14S, indicating it contains seven carbon atoms, fourteen hydrogen atoms, and one sulfur atom. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, distinctive odor, often described as sulfurous or reminiscent of rotten cabbage, which is common among thiols. The presence of the thiol group imparts unique chemical properties, including reactivity with oxidizing agents and the ability to form disulfides. 3-Methylcyclohexanethiol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclohexane structure. It is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as thiols can be toxic and irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
