Pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) is an organic compound which is derived from pentaerythritol fully esterified with four equivalents of 3-mercaptopropionic acid. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature. [1]
3-Mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) is an organosulfur compound with the formula HSCH 2 CH 2 CO 2 H. It is a bifunctional molecule, containing both carboxylic acid and thiol groups. It is a colorless oil.
Pentaerythritol was first reported in 1891 by German chemist Bernhard Tollens and his student P. Wigand. [5] It may be prepared via a base-catalyzed multiple-addition reaction between acetaldehyde and 3 equivalents of formaldehyde to give pentaerythrose (CAS: 3818-32-4), followed by a Cannizzaro reaction with a fourth equivalent of formaldehyde to give the final product plus formate ion.
Omega-3-acid ethyl esters are used in addition to changes in diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adults with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. [3] In the European Union and other major markets outside the US, omega-3-acid ethyl esters are indicated for hypertriglyceridemia by itself, or in combination with a statin for people with mixed dyslipidemia.
It is made from the omega−3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). [6] The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted the approval of icosapent ethyl in 2012 to Amarin Corporation, and it became the second fish oil-based medication after omega-3-acid ethyl esters (brand named Lovaza, itself approved in 2004).

[3] [4] The molecule's acrylate group functionality enables the molecule to do the Michael reaction with amines. It is therefore sometimes used in epoxy chemistry enabling a large reduction in cure time. [5] As the molecule has 4 functional acrylate groups it confers high cross-link density.
3-Mercaptopropionitrile is the organosulfur compound with the formula HSCH 2 CH 2 CN. [1] Containing both thiol and nitrile functional groups , it is a bifunctional compound . A colorless liquid, the compound has found some use as a masked form of thiolate.
Butyl propionate is used to make fragrances, perfumes and as a flavoring.It is also used in paints and primers for auto body or engine, appliance coatings (paints designed specifically for painting household items and vehicles like microwave ovens, refrigerators and automobiles), enamels, lacquers, and printing inks, as a solvent for adhesives and nitrocellulose, and in polymerization ...
