Cupric N,N-dibutyl dithiocarbamate - Introduction
Copper N,N-dibutyldithiocarbamate (Bis(dimethylthiocarbamoyl) disulfide copper, CuDTC for short) is a chemical compound. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
CuDTC is a dark blue crystal or powder with a strong thiol taste. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, diethyl ether and carbon disulfide. CuDTC is relatively stable in air and decomposes under thermodynamic conditions.
Use:
CuDTC is commonly used as a reducing agent and catalyst in organometallic chemistry. It can be used in the synthesis of transition metal complexes, coating additives, rubber accelerators and glass colorants.
Preparation Method:
There are many methods for preparing CuDTC, the most common is by reacting dibutyldithiocarbamic acid (the preparation method is to react diethylamine and carbodiimide in the presence of carbon disulfide) with copper chloride in an organic solvent to generate CuDTC.
Safety Information:
CuDTC may cause irritation to the human body when in contact with the skin and when inhaled, so direct contact should be avoided. Wear protective gloves and respiratory protective equipment during use or handling. At the same time, avoid contact with oxidants and strong acids to prevent dangerous chemical reactions. Please read the safety instructions carefully before use and follow the correct operating procedures. For accidental contact or ingestion, seek medical attention immediately.
