What is 2-Methylmercaptobenzothiazole?
Chemical properties
colorless to light yellow crystalline powder
The Uses of 2-Methylmercaptobenzothiazole
2-(Methylthio)Benzothiazole could be useful for removing pollutants in drinking water.
The Uses of 2-Methylmercaptobenzothiazole
2-(Methylthio)benzothiazole was used in trace determination of polar 1H-benzotriazoles and benzothiazoles in drinking and surface water by liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry.
Definition
ChEBI: An organic sulfide that is the methyl thioether of 1,3-benzothiazole-2-thiol.
General Description
2-(Methylthio)benzothiazole is the degradation product of 2-(thiocyanomethylthio)benzothiazole, a biocide used in the leather, pulp, paper and water-treatment industries.
Metabolic pathway
When 2-methylthiobenzothiazole and 35S-labeled glutathione (GSH) are incubated with rat liver microsomes, both 35S-labeled S-(2- benzothiazolyl)glutathione and 2- mercaptobenzothiazole are isolated from the reaction mixtures. Glutathione-S-transferase appears to be involved in the S-(2- benzothiazolyl)glutathione formation. Although sulfur is exchanged in this pathway, the net result of this pathway which involves oxidation of the methylthio group and GSH conjugation is an apparent S-demethylation of the methylthio group. Another S-demethylation pathway that does not involve GSH conjugation also functions in vitro.
