Also known as 2-Aminophenyl mercaptan, 2-Mercaptaniline, 1-Amino-2-mercaptobenzene, 2-Aminobenzenethiol, 2-Mercaptoaniline, o-Aminophenyl mercaptan, 2-Amino-1-mercaptobenzene, o-Aminothiophenol
2-Aminothiophenol is an organosulfur compound with the formula C6H4(SH)(NH2). It is a colorless oily solid, although impure samples can be deeply colored. It is soluble in organic solvents and in basic water. 2-Aminothiophenol is a precursor to benzothiazoles, some of which are bioactive or are commercial dyes. Isomers of aminothiophenols include 3-aminothiophenol and 4-aminothiophenol.

Isomers of aminothiophenols include 3-aminothiophenol and 4-aminothiophenol.
2-Aminothiophenol can prepared in two steps, starting with the reaction of aniline with carbon disulfide followed by hydrolysis of the resulting mercaptobenzothiazole. It can also obtained by zinc reduction of 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride.
