NH₂-C₆H₄-SCH₃ (amino group para to methylthio group).
Key Properties & Uses:
Chemical Role:
Building block in synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals.
Used to create sulfur-containing heterocycles or functionalized anilines.
Applications:
Dye Intermediate: For sulfur dyes and pigments.
Agrochemicals: Precursor to herbicides/fungicides (e.g., via oxidation to sulfoxide/sulfone).
Pharmaceuticals: Scaffold in drug design (e.g., kinase inhibitors).
Properties:
Pale yellow crystalline solid or powder.
Moderately soluble in organic solvents (ethanol, acetone); low water solubility.
Odor: Amine-like (unpleasant).
Safety & Handling:
Toxic: Harmful if swallowed/inhaled; skin contact causes irritation.
Sensitizer: May trigger allergic reactions.
Oxidation Risk: Can form sulfoxides/sulfones.
PPE Required: Gloves, goggles, ventilation.
Synthesis:
Typically from p-nitrochlorobenzene:
Reaction with sodium thiomethoxide (NaSCH₃).
Reduction of nitro group (-NO₂ → -NH₂) using Fe/HCl or catalytic hydrogenation.
