Physical & Chemical Properties
-
Appearance: Typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid.
-
Odor: This is its most defining characteristic. At pure, high concentrations, it has a pungent, sulfurous, meaty, or broth-like smell. However, when highly diluted, it transforms into a sweet, savory, juicy, and tropical fruit aroma, often described as resembling grapefruit, passion fruit, or guava.
-
Solubility: Slightly soluble in water due to the alcohol group, but more soluble in organic solvents (ethanol, diethyl e-ther, perfume oils).
-
Reactivity: The thiol group makes it susceptible to oxidation, where it can form disulfides. It can also participate in reactions typical of both thiols and alcohols.
- Chemical Intermediate: Primarily used in organic synthesis to build complex molecules requiring specific sulfur functionality and alcohol groups.
- Ligand in Coordination Chemistry: The sulfur and oxygen atoms can coordinate with metal ions, making it suitable for catalysts or metal-organic frameworks.
- Pharmaceutical and Agrochemical Research: Potential building block for drug or pesticide candidates due to its sulfur-containing structure.
- Flavor and Fragrance Industry: May contribute to complex flavor profiles at low concentrations, despite its likely unpleasant pure odor.
