1-Hexanol, 6-(methylthio)- is an organic compound characterized by its long carbon chain and the presence of a methylthio group. It belongs to the class of alcohols, specifically a primary alcohol, due to the hydroxyl (-OH) functional group attached to the terminal carbon of the hexane chain. The methylthio group, which consists of a sulfur atom bonded to a methyl group, introduces unique properties, including potential reactivity and distinct odor characteristics. This compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. Its molecular structure allows for various applications, including use as a solvent, in fragrance formulations, and potentially in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety data indicates that, like many alcohols and sulfur-containing compounds, it should be handled with care to avoid inhalation or skin contact, as it may cause irritation.
