2-Phenylethyl mercaptan (CAS: 105-98-4) is a key aromatic thiol with molecular formula C8H10S. Produced via nucleophilic substitution of benzyl chloride or catalytic reduction, it serves as a vital intermediate in fragrance synthesis and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Strictly store in sealed, corrosion-resistant containers under inert atmosphere. Avoid inhalation due to extreme volatility and potent odor; use appropriate PPE including respirators and chemical-resistant gloves during handling.
