1-Propanol, 3-[(1,1-dimethylethyl)thio]-

Description:

1-Propanol, 3-[(1,1-dimethylethyl)thio]- is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a propanol backbone with a thioether functional group. The presence of the tert-butyl thio group contributes to its unique properties, including increased hydrophobicity compared to simple alcohols. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor and is soluble in organic solvents while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. It has applications in various fields, including organic synthesis and as a potential intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. The thioether functionality can influence its reactivity, making it useful in specific chemical reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many alcohols and thioethers, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety in laboratory and industrial settings.
