Product Information
Name:2-Methylbenzyl mercaptan
Brand:Biosynth
Description:2-Methylbenzyl mercaptan is a heterocyclic compound that is found in the sulfoxides and azides classes. It can be synthesized by treating 2-methylbenzaldehyde with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or trifluoroacetic acid. The chloride yields are high and the reaction is catalysed by aluminum chloride, triethylamine, or zinc chloride. This compound can be converted to a bioconjugate through ring-opening reactions with carboxyamide groups, which are present on proteins in mammalian cells. The bioconjugate can then be used as a fluorescent probe to detect the presence of specific proteins in living cells.
