CAS 39257-91-5
:Butanoic acid, 4-mercapto-, methyl ester
Description:
Butanoic acid, 4-mercapto-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 39257-91-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a butanoic acid moiety and a thiol group. This compound features a methyl ester functional group, which contributes to its reactivity and solubility properties. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, often associated with sulfur compounds. The presence of the mercapto group (-SH) imparts unique chemical properties, including the ability to participate in redox reactions and form disulfide bonds. This compound is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate solubility in water due to the ester functionality. Its applications can range from use in organic synthesis to potential roles in flavor and fragrance industries, owing to its characteristic odor. Safety considerations include handling precautions due to its potential irritant properties and the need for proper storage to prevent degradation.

CAS:<p>Methyl 4-sulfanylbutanoate is a leukotriene D4, which is an inflammatory mediator. It can be activated by the addition of hydrogen peroxide or tetrahydropyran and then becomes a potent leukotriene antagonist. Methyl 4-sulfanylbutanoate also inhibits the activity of acyltransferases, which are enzymes that catalyze reactions in the synthesis of arachidonic acid. This compound has been shown to have inhibitory effects on inflammatory bowel disease and may be useful for treating cerebral inflammation.</p>Formula:C5H10O2SPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:134.2 g/mol
