Thiols
Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
Nomenclature of Thiols
1) Analogous to alcohols, but suffix is -thiol
rather than –ol.
2) Final -e of alkane name is retained, not
dropped as with alcohols.
CH3CHCH2CH2SH
CH3
3-Methyl-1-butanethiol
Properties of Thiols
1. Hydrogen bonding is much weaker in thiols than
in alcohols (S—H bond is less polar than O—H).
2. Low molecular weight thiols have foul odors.
3. Thiols are stronger acids than alcohols.
4. Thiols are more easily oxidized than alcohols;
oxidation takes place at sulfur.

Thiol-disulfide redox pair is important in
biochemistry.
Other oxidative processes place 1,2, or 3
oxygen atoms on sulfur.

Spectroscopic Analysis of
Alcohols and Thiols
Infrared Spectroscopy
O—H stretching: 3200-3650 cm–1 (broad)
C—O stretching: 1025-1200 cm–1 (broad)

Infrared Spectroscopy
S—H stretching: 2550-2700 cm–1 (weak)
1H
NMR
Chemical shift of O—H proton is variable; depends
on temperature and concentration.
O—H proton can be identified by adding D2O; signal
for O—H disappears (converted to O—D).
H—C—O signal is less shielded than H—C—H.

Sulfur is less electronegative than oxygen, so is
less deshielding.

UV-VIS
Unless there are other chromophores in the
molecule, alcohols are transparent above
about 200 nm; max for methanol, for
example, is 177 nm.
Mass Spectrometry of Alcohols
Molecular ion peak is usually small.
R
A peak corresponding to loss of H2O
from the molecular ion (M - 18) is
usually present.
Peak corresponding to loss of an
alkyl group to give an oxygenstabilized carbocation is usually
prominent.
