2-Naphthalenethiol is an organosulfur compound with the formula C10H7SH. It is a white solid. It is one of two monothiols of naphthalene, the other being 1-naphthalenethiol.
Synthesis and reactions
2-Naphthalenethiol is prepared from 2-naphthol by the Newman–Kwart rearrangement starting from a thiocarbamate.[1] It undergoes lithiation at the 1 and 3-position.[2][3]
It can be used as a flavouring agent and has been described as having an “artichoke”, “meaty” and “creamy” taste”.[4][5]
