1,4-bis[(methylsulfanyl)methyl]benzene

Description:

1,4-Bis[(methylsulfanyl)methyl]benzene, with the CAS number 75919-81-2, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a benzene ring substituted at the 1 and 4 positions with methylsulfanyl groups attached to methyl groups. This compound is part of the class of thioether compounds, where sulfur atoms are bonded to carbon atoms. It typically exhibits properties such as moderate solubility in organic solvents and low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of sulfur in its structure may impart unique reactivity, including potential nucleophilic behavior. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting electronic properties due to the conjugation of the aromatic system with the substituents. Its applications could range from use in organic synthesis to potential roles in materials science, although specific applications may vary based on further research and development. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
