Description
2-Phenylethanethiol serves as a building block in organic synthesis to incorporate a thiol functional group into molecules.Structures of 2-phenylethanethiol and its 1:1 water clusters have been studied using resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy.2-Phenylethanethiol has been used:in preparation of biicosahedral Au (25) clusters protected with various types of thiol ligandsas derivatization reagent for phosphorylated sequences of peptides, for enhancing ionization efficiency in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry
