4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzenethiol

Description:
4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzenethiol, also known as p-methoxy-o-methylthiophenol, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a methoxy group and a methylthio group. Its molecular formula is C9H12OS, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the thiol (-SH) functional group imparts characteristic reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and oxidation. Additionally, the methoxy group can influence the compound's electronic properties, affecting its reactivity and interactions with other substances. 4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzenethiol is used in organic synthesis and may have applications in the fragrance industry due to its aromatic properties. As with many thiols, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and odor.
