benzyl trisulfide

Description:

Benzyl trisulfide, with the CAS number 6493-73-8, is an organosulfur compound characterized by the presence of three sulfur atoms bonded to a benzyl group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. This compound is known for its role in the flavor and fragrance industry, often contributing to the aroma of certain foods and natural products. Benzyl trisulfide exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents but is generally insoluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Its chemical structure allows for various reactivity patterns, including potential interactions with nucleophiles and electrophiles, making it of interest in synthetic organic chemistry. Additionally, it has been studied for its biological activities, including potential antimicrobial properties. Safety data indicates that, like many organosulfur compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper safety protocols should be followed when working with this substance in laboratory settings.

Benzyl trisulfide

CAS: 6493-73-8

Benzyl trisulfide is a compound that irreversibly inhibits enzyme activity, specifically protein kinase C. It has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and decrease the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer (NF-κB) in squamous carcinoma cells. Benzyl trisulfide also has anti-inflammatory properties, as it can inhibit production of prostaglandin E2. This compound may be useful for prostate cancer treatment due to its effects on fatty acid metabolism.
