Applications · 4 items

DescriptionFurfuryl mercaptan has a characteristic unpleasant odor. It is prepared by reacting thiourea and furfuryl chloride with subsequent hydrolysis of the reaction product; also by reduction of difurfuryl disulfide in alcoholic solution using zinc dust and a small amount of acetic acid or using activated alumina. Furfuryl mercaptan tends to polymerize when heated in the presence of mineral acids.

OccurrenceReported found in raw and roasted chicken, cooked beef, grilled pork, sesame seed oil, coffee and popcorn; tends to polymerize when heated in the presence of mineral acids

UsesFurfuryl Mercaptam is a volatile flavor component of corn tortilla chips.

General DescriptionDarkens on storage

Preparation methods

PreparationFurfuryl mercaptan is prepared from furfuryl alcohol, thiourea, and hydrogen chloride.The resulting S-furfurylisothiouronium chloride is cleaved with sodium hydroxide to give furfuryl mercaptan.
