1-phenylethanethiol

Description:

1-Phenylethanethiol, also known as phenethyl mercaptan, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiol group (-SH) attached to a phenethyl group. Its molecular formula is C8H10S, indicating it consists of eight carbon atoms, ten hydrogen atoms, and one sulfur atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of garlic or skunk, which makes it useful in small quantities as an odorant in natural gas. 1-Phenylethanethiol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic phenyl group. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, and can participate in various chemical transformations, including oxidation to form disulfides. Additionally, it has applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and its vapors may be harmful if inhaled.
