Chemical s main applications
Methyl Thioglycolate is an derivative of Thioglycolic Acid (T350760), an organic compound containing both a thiol and a carboxylic acid functional groups. Thioglycolic Acid and its derivatives are often used in organic synthesis as a nucleophile in thioglycolysis reactions and is also used as a S transfer agent for sulfonyl chloride synthesis. Methyl Thioglycolate have been studied for the its influence on neocarzinostatin activation and expression of DNA damage.

Description
A methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms — CH3. In formulas, the group is often abbreviated Me. Such hydrocarbon groups occur in many organic compounds. It is a very stable group in most molecules. While the methyl group is usually part of a larger molecule, it can be found on its own in any of three forms anion, cation or radical. The anion has eight valence electrons, the radical seven and the cation six. All three forms are highly reactive and rarely observed,
