methyl 4-sulfanylbenzoate

Description:

Methyl 4-sulfanylbenzoate, with the CAS number 6302-65-4, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and a thiol substituent. It features a methyl ester derived from 4-sulfanylbenzoic acid, where the sulfanyl (or thiol) group (-SH) is attached to the benzene ring at the para position relative to the carboxylate group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as a building block in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the thiol group imparts unique reactivity, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and as a reducing agent. Additionally, methyl 4-sulfanylbenzoate may exhibit specific odor characteristics, often associated with sulfur-containing compounds. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as thiols can be malodorous and may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
