Pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) is a common thiol monomer reacted with alkenes in the thiol-ene reaction to form polymeric networks. [3] Being functionalized with four thiol groups, it can react with multifunctional alkenes to form thiol-ene networks.
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.
It is a tetrafunctional acrylate ester used as a monomer in the manufacture of polymers. [1] As it is a polymerizable acrylate monomer, it is nearly always supplied with an added polymerisation inhibitor , such as MEHQ (monomethyl ether hydroquinone).
Beclometasone dipropionate, an example of a widely used corticosteroid ester. Note the propionate groups at the C17α and C21α positions (top right corner). This is a list of corticosteroid esters, including esters of steroidal glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. [1] [2] [3]
Often, acrylate refers to esters of acrylic acid, the most common member being methyl acrylate. These acrylates contain vinyl groups . These compounds are of interest because they are bifunctional : the vinyl group is susceptible to polymerization and the carboxylate group carries myriad functionalities.
The suffix-oate is the IUPAC nomenclature used in organic chemistry to form names of compounds formed with ester. They are of two types: They are of two types: Formed by replacing the hydrogen atom in the –COOH by some other radical , usually an alkyl or aryl radical forming an ester .
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.
