2-broMoethanethiol - Introduction
Ethanethiol(Ethanethiol) is an organic sulfur compound with the chemical formula C2H5SH. It is a colorless liquid with a strong smell of rotten eggs. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of Ethanethiol:
Nature:
-Appearance: colorless liquid
-Smelly: Strong smell of rotten eggs
-Melting point: About -95 ° C
-Boiling point: about 36 ° C
-Density: approx. 0.87g/cm3
-Solubility: Soluble in water and organic solvents
Use:
-Chemical synthesis: Ethanethiol is commonly used in organic synthesis and can be used as a reagent, catalyst and intermediate.
-Preservative: Due to its strong odor, Ethanethiol can be used as a preservative, commonly used in gas odorants and fungicides.
Method:
- Ethanethiol can be obtained by reacting chloroalkane with sodium hydrosulfide. First, the chloroalkane is reacted with sodium hydrosulfide in alcohol or ether with continued heating to give the corresponding mercaptan. Subsequently, the resulting thiol is reacted with bromine under basic conditions to give Ethanethiol.
Safety Information:
- Ethanethiol is a toxic and volatile substance, irritating and corrosive. When using must pay attention to safety measures, avoid inhalation, contact with skin and eyes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, glasses and laboratory coats when used. Operate in a well-ventilated area if necessary. When storing and handling the substance, avoid contact with oxidizing agents and strong bases to prevent dangerous reactions. In the case of an accidental spill, immediate measures should be taken to remove the spill and follow the relevant emergency procedures. When using or handling Ethanethiol, the relevant safety procedures and regulations must be followed.
