METHYL THIOSALICYLATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to light yellow or light green

Uses

Methyl 2-Mercaptobenzoate (cas# 4892-02-8) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

Uses

Methyl thiosalicylate may be used:

• in the synthesis of thioxanthone, an efficient enantioselective organocatalyst for the intramolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition reaction
• as anionic bidentate ligand, in the preparation of ′2+1′ type complexes of [(99m)Tc]-tricarbonyltechnetium(I) and [(188)Re]-tricarbonylrhenium(I)
• in the synthesis of a series of benzisothiazolone derivatives
• in the synthesis of a new fused benzoheterocyclic compound, [1]benzothieno[3,2-b]furan

General Description

Methyl thiosalicylate may be benefecial in preventing mercury-induced toxicity.
