2-(ethylsulfanyl)ethanethiol - Introduction
2-ETHYLTHIOETHANETHIOL(2-ethylthioethanethiol) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H10S2, and its structure contains an ethylthio group and an ethanethiol group. It is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a strong smell of rotten eggs.
2-ETHYLTHIOETHANETHIOL is mainly used in organic synthesis and research. It can be used as a precursor of organic sulfur compounds for the preparation of sulfides, sulfide modifications and metal organic catalysts. At the same time, it is also widely used in food, medicine and spice industry and other fields.
There are two main methods for the preparation of 2-ETHYLTHIOETHANETHIOL. One is obtained by the reaction of ethyl phosphorochlorothioate with sodium hydrosulfide. Another method is by the reaction of ethyl sulfide with sulfuryl chloride.
When using 2-ETHYLTHIOETHANETHIOL, attention should be paid to its safety. It is an irritant substance that may cause irritation and damage to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment during operation to avoid direct contact. In addition, it is also a combustible substance, avoid contact with fire sources, and use it in a well-ventilated place.
