| Uses | Methyl Thioglycolate is an derivative of Thioglycolic Acid (T350760), an organic compound containing both a thiol and a carboxylic acid functional groups. Thioglycolic Acid and its derivatives are oft en used in organic synthesis as a nucleophile in thioglycolysis reactions and is also used as a S transfer agent for sulfonyl chloride synthesis. Methyl Thioglycolate have been studied for the its inf luence on neocarzinostatin activation and expression of DNA damage. |
| Uses | Methyl thioglycolate was used in the preparation of 3-carbomethoxy-4- oxotetrahydrothiopyran, 2- and 4-carbomethoxy-3-oxotetrahydrothiophene. It is used to prepare methyl thioglycolate and aminoethanethiol conjugated gold nanorods. |
| Application | Methyl thioglycolate is a chemical compound that is used in the pharmaceutical industry as an intermediate. It has been used to synthesize anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin and ibuprofen, and also for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Methyl thioglycolate binds to amino acids on the surface of bacteria, which prevents them from functioning properly. This binding causes the cells to stop growing and die. |
| Definition | Methyl thioglycolate are widely used in free-radical photoinitiated polymerization reactions. In particular, the use of methyl thioglycolate (MTG), CH3OC(O)CH2SH, results in greater photopolymerization reaction rates, attributed to a weakening of the sulfur–hydrogen bond by hydrogen bonding of the thiol group. MTG constitutes the smaller exponent of the series of CH3OC(O)(CH2)nSH compounds, reported as intermediated in the organic sulfur cycle in marine environments, produced by marine phytoplankton. |
