4-Mercaptobenzonitrile(Cat No.:L014165)is an aromatic compound featuring a thiol (-SH) group at the para (4-) position and a nitrile (-CN) group at the 1-position of a benzene ring. This bifunctional molecule is a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, materials science, and surface chemistry. The thiol group readily binds to metal surfaces, particularly gold, making it useful in self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and nanotechnology applications. The nitrile group offers further functionalization potential via transformations into amides, amines, or heterocycles. Its electron-rich and reactive structure supports use in sensor design, drug development, and molecular electronics.
