Applications	Iso-pentyl mercaptan is a sulfur-containing organic compound mainly used in research and chemical synthesis. Its strong, pungent odor resembling onion or garlic makes it valuable in flavor and fragrance studies at trace levels, while its thiol group allows it to act as a reagent in organic reactions. It is also applied in nanotechnology, particularly for preparing monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles used in catalysis, sensing, and biomedical research.
