(Phenylthio)propanone

CAS: 5042-53-5

Phenylthiopropanone (PTPA) is an organic compound that belongs to the class of sulfoxides. It can be synthesized from ethyl ester, chloroform, and phenylthiol in a three-step process using methodologies such as biotransformations or chemoenzymatic reactions. PTPA can also be obtained by reacting sodium sulfoxide with phosphorus pentachloride. PTPA has been used as a precursor for other compounds including the hydroxy group, chloride, and synthetically desulfurized phenylthioacetaldehyde. The synthesis of PTPA is usually carried out in the presence of a catalyst and kinetic control of the reaction is necessary to avoid undesired side reactions.
