Description
2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-thiol, also known as 2-Methyl-3-tetrahydrofuranthiol, is a sulfur-containing flavor compound that is colorless to light yellow in appearance. It is primarily used in the food industry for its meaty flavor profile and is also reported to be found in heated pork meat.
Uses
Used in Flavor Industry:
2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-thiol is used as a flavor compound for enhancing the meaty aroma in various food products. Its application reason is due to its strong meaty flavor profile, which can significantly improve the taste and aroma of processed meat products and other food items that require a meaty flavor.
Used in Meat Flavorings:
In the meat flavorings industry, 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran-3-thiol is used as a key ingredient to impart a rich, meaty flavor to products. The application reason is its ability to mimic the taste and aroma of cooked meat, making it an essential component in the creation of artificial or imitation meat products, as well as in enhancing the flavor of natural meat products.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 57124-87-5 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 5,7,1,2 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 57124-87:
(7*5)+(6*7)+(5*1)+(4*2)+(3*4)+(2*8)+(1*7)=125
125 % 10 = 5
So 57124-87-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Preparation method and application of 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran-3-thiol

Paragraph 0018; 0052; 0053, (2018/09/12)
The invention discloses a preparation method of 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran-3-thiol. According to the preparation method, 5-hydroxy-2-pentanone is used as a raw material, and the 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran-3-thiol is prepared by carrying out a dispersion reaction. The preparation method has the advantages that when the 5-hydroxy-2-pentanone (I) and phosphoric acid are taken as raw materials for preparing 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran (II), less isomer is produced, so that the generation of by-products in a reaction process can be effectively reduced, and the product quality is greatly improved; an intermediate 2-methyltetrahydrofuran-3-thiol acetate (III) is obtained by enabling the 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran (II) to react with thioacetic acid, and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran-3-thiol is then prepared, so that the preparation route is short in reaction time.
