Methimazole, also known as methylmercaptoimidazole or 2-methylmercaptoimidazole, is a white to light yellow crystalline powder.
Methimazole can be used as a highly effective solvent and is particularly suitable for the extraction and separation of some metal ions, such as copper, nickel and zinc ions.
It can also be used as a catalyst or intermediate for some chemical reactions.
Methimazole is also an intermediate for imidazole-based antithyroid drugs.
