4-Methyl-5-vinylthiazole is an organic compound that is used in analytical chemistry to study the solutes of aqueous solutions. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a technique that utilizes the electrical properties of a substance to identify its components and measure its concentration. It has been shown that 4-methyl-5-vinylthiazole can be used as an active component in phase liquid chromatography, which separates solutes based on their affinity for different phases of the solvent system. This chemical has been shown to be selective for family Rutaceae, inhibiting corrosion by metals such as copper and zinc. The selectivity of this chemical may also be due to hydrogen bonding or dipole interactions with other molecules.
