Chemical Structure
Methionol
Synonym(s): 3-Hydroxypropyl methyl sulfide; 3-Methylmercapto-1-propanol; 4-Thiapentan-1-ol; gamma-Hydroxypropyl methyl sulfide
- CAS. Nr.: 505-10-2
- Formula:C4H10OS
- Molecular Weight:106.19
IUPAC Name: 3-(methylthio)propan-1-ol
InChIKey: CZUGFKJYCPYHHV-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: OCCCSC
Biological Activity: Methionol is a sulfur-containing flavor compound and also a component of aggregation pheromones produced by males. Methionol exists in fermented coconut milk and wine. Methionol has an odor similar to boiled cabbage, and imparts cauliflower-like off-flavors to wine when its content exceeds the perception threshold. Methionol attracts both male and female adults of Knulliana cincta cincta, and mainly attracts female adults of Elaphidion mucronatum[1][2][3].
