4-(Methylthio)benzeneacetonitrile

Description:

4-(Methylthio)benzeneacetonitrile, with the CAS number 38746-92-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzene ring substituted with a methylthio group and an acetonitrile functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its aromatic properties due to the benzene ring, which contributes to its stability and reactivity. The methylthio group (-S-CH3) enhances its nucleophilicity, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including synthesis and as an intermediate in organic chemistry. Additionally, the acetonitrile moiety (-C≡N) provides polar characteristics, which can influence solubility in different solvents. 4-(Methylthio)benzeneacetonitrile may be utilized in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals, owing to its functional groups that allow for further chemical modifications. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering potential toxicity and environmental impact.

CAS: 38746-92-8

p-(Methylthio)phenylacetonitrile (p-MTPA) is a synthetic analgesic that belongs to the group of benzyl derivatives. It has analgesic, antiinflammatory and antipyretic properties. p-MTPA is used in organic synthesis as a hydrolysis reagent for benzyl halides. The drug has been shown to be an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and exerts its effects by decreasing prostaglandin production. P-MTPA is also decarboxylated to produce benzoic acid and phenylacetic acid, which have acidic properties.
