(4-Methylthio)toluene Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to light yellow liquid

Uses

Methyl p-Tolyl Sulfide (CAS# 623-13-2) can be used as a potential for drug interaction mediation by polymorphic flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 in human livers. It can also be used to analyze peroxide in laundry detergents using liquid chromatography.

Definition

ChEBI: Methyl p-tolyl sulfide is an aryl sulfide that is thioanisole in which the hydrogen at the para position has been replaced by a methyl group. It is an aryl sulfide and a member of toluenes.
