Product Information

• Name: 2-Methoxythiophenol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Methoxythiophenol is a reactive oxygen species (ROS) that is produced by the interaction of hydroxyl groups with an intramolecular hydrogen. It has been shown to have cytotoxic effects in tissues and has been used as an experimental treatment for cancer. The compound also functions as an antioxidant, which prevents the oxidation of other molecules. 2-Methoxythiophenol can also be used to prevent damage caused by ROS in animals. 2-Methoxythiophenol may cleave bonds, such as those found between gold nanoparticles and acetonitrile molecules. This reaction yields active oxygen, which can be used to produce radicals that are highly reactive and able to oxidize organic materials or bond with protonated molecules, leading to their destruction.
