:4-methoxy-3-methylbenzenethiol
Description:
4-Methoxy-3-methylbenzenethiol, also known as p-methoxy-m-cresol thiol, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the para position and a methylthio group (-SH) at the meta position. Its molecular formula is C9H12OS, and it features a thiol functional group, which imparts distinctive properties such as a strong, often unpleasant odor. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the thiol group makes it reactive, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, and it can participate in oxidation reactions to form disulfides. 4-Methoxy-3-methylbenzenethiol is utilized in various applications, including as a fragrance component and in organic synthesis. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as thiols can be toxic and irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
