Tert-Nonyl mercaptan, with the CAS number 25360-10-5, is an organic compound classified as a thiol, characterized by the presence of a sulfhydryl (-SH) group. It features a branched nonyl chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, unpleasant odor reminiscent of rotten eggs or garlic, which is common among thiols. Tert-Nonyl mercaptan is known for its reactivity, particularly in forming disulfides and participating in various chemical reactions, making it useful in the synthesis of surfactants, antioxidants, and other specialty chemicals. It is also employed as a chain transfer agent in polymerization processes, influencing molecular weight and polymer properties. Due to its potential for skin and respiratory irritation, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling this substance. Additionally, its environmental impact and toxicity should be considered, necessitating careful management in industrial applications.
