CAS 59293-67-3

2,4-Dichlorobenzenemethanethiol

Description:

2,4-Dichlorobenzenemethanethiol, with the CAS number 59293-67-3, is an organosulfur compound characterized by the presence of a thiol (-SH) group attached to a benzene ring that is further substituted with two chlorine atoms at the 2 and 4 positions. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of chlorine atoms enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, including as an intermediate in the production of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the thiol group contributes to its potential as a reducing agent and its ability to form disulfide bonds. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact, and it should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
