4-(Methylthio)phenol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesWhite solid
Uses4-(Methylmercapto)phenol [4-(Methylthio)phenol] may be used in the preparation of phosphoramidodithioate intermediates for the synthesis of sulprofos amidate.
DefinitionChEBI: 4-(methylsulfanyl)phenol is an aryl sulfide and a member of phenols.
General Description4-(Methylmercapto)phenol (4MP) mediates the removal of benzyloxycarbonyl and O-benzyl protecting groups by accepting the benzyl groups during the acidolytic cleavage with trifluoroacetic acid. The presence of hydroxyl group in the para position enhances the rate of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of 4MP.
Synthesis4-Methylthiobenzeneboronic acid (0.3 mmol,1.0equiv) was added to a dried 20 mL quartz test tube and the quartz test tube was evacuated while backfilled with oxygen three times. Under oxygen conditions, Et3N (62.5 L,0.45 mmol,1.5equiv) and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (4 ml) were added sequentially via syringe. The resulting mixture was stirred for 5 min and then the quartz test tube was transferred to a photoreactor. The test tube was placed about 2 cm from a 15 W UV lamp. The reaction mixture was stirred and photoreacted for 24 h. After the indicated time, the crude product was diluted with ethyl acetate, filtered through a pad of silica gel and concentrated under reduced pressure. The desired product was then obtained by direct silica gel rapid chromatography using silica gel (EtOAc/PE = 1/10).
