Description

Methyl thioglycolate is a colorless liquid with a sulfurous odor. It is used as a solvent, an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals, and as a reagent in organic chemistry. Methyl thioglycolate is synthesized by the reaction of methyl mercaptan with chloroacetic acid. It is a reactive compound that can be used to synthesize a variety of other chemicals, including thioesters, thioethers, and thioamides. Methyl thioglycolate is also used as a reagent in the synthesis of polymers and pharmaceuticals. It is studied for its potential use in the development of new drugs and materials.'
