Introduction: (1) Thymine, along with adenine, guanine, and cytosine, is one of the four nucleic acid bases in DNA; thymine can be used to study chemical processes that affect DNA structure, such as a radiation-induced free radical product resulting in base cross-linking reaction and derivatization reaction. Thymine can be used to study the energy and hydrogen bonding kinetic parameters with other nucleic acid bases such as adenine; thymine is used for the development of (Hg) detectors with sensitive, nanoparticle-based structures and coordination chemistry.(2) 5-methyl pyrimidine is an important component of genetic material, is the key intermediates of synthestising anti-AIDS drugs AZT, DDT and related drugs key intermediates, but also the starting material of synthetising anti-tumor, antiviral drug β-thymidine.

3.1 Definition
ChEBI: A pyrimidine nucleobase that is uracil in which the hydrogen at position 5 is replaced by a methyl group.
3.2 Purification Methods
Crystallise thymine from EtOAc, 10% aqueous EtOH or water. It has m 318-320o after sublimation at 200o/12mm. Purify it by preparative (2mm thick) TLC plates of silica gel, eluting with ethyl acetate/isopropanol/water (75:16:9, v/v; RF 0.75). The desired spot is localated with a uv lamp, cut the band from the plate, place it in MeOH, shake and filter it through a millipore filter, then evaporate. [Infante et al.

9. Other Information
9.0 Usage
Thymine is one of the four nucleobases, along with adenine, guanine and cytosine found in deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA). Thymine may be used to study chemical processes that affect DNA structure, such a radiation induced radical production leading to base cross-linking reactions and derivitizations. Thymine may be used to study the parameters of hydrogen bonding kinetics and energies with other nucleobases such as adenine. Thymine is used to develop sensitive heavy metal (mercury) detectors based on coordination chemistry and nanoparticle structures.
