Thioacetic acid

Thioacetic acid

Thioacetic acid is an organic compound with the molecular formula CH3COSH. It is the sulfur equivalent of acetic acid (AcOH) with a lower boiling point (88-91.5°C). It is used in organic chemistry for the introduction of thiol groups in molecules.

In one application the reagent is used with AIBN in a free radical mediated nucleophilic addition to an exocyclic alkene forming a thioester ["Synthesis of methyl 6-deoxy-4-O-(sodium sulfonato)-α-Ltalopyranoside, its C-4 epimer and both isosteric [4-C-(potassium sulfonatomethyl)] derivatives"László Lázár, Magdolna Csávás, Anikó Borbás, Gyöngyi Gyémánt, and András Lipták ARKIVOC 2004 (vii) 196-207 [http://www.arkat-usa.org/ARKIVOC/JOURNAL_CONTENT/manuscripts/2004/SA-1033BP%20as%20published%20mainmanuscript.pdf Link] ] :
