3-mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol, also known as MMB, is an organic volatile compound that belongs to the group alkylthiols. It is a secondary metabolite and is a degradation product of felinine, a feline pheromone. Some studies suggest that due to similarities in odor, 3-mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol and derivatives such as 3-mercapto-3-methyl-1-butyl-1-formate and 3-methyl-3-(methylsulfanyl)butan-1-ol have similar behaviours as felinine. These findings may provide useful and interesting information about signaling and communication related to reproduction and recognition in mammals.
3-mercapto-3-methyl-1-butanol can be also found in some alcoholic beverages and coffee products. It provides a meaty flavor and aroma, and it is used as a flavoring agent in the food industry.
