Nature:
(Ethylthio)acetone is a colorless liquid with a strong pungent odor. It is flammable and insoluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone.
Use:
(Ethylthio)acetone is commonly used as an acyl transfer reagent in organic synthesis reactions. It can participate in carbon-carbon bond formation to generate thioketone and thioester compounds. In addition, it is used for the preparation of organic sulfur compounds, such as sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds and sulfur-containing functional groups of drugs and dyes.
Method:
(Ethylthio)acetone can be synthesized by the reaction of ethanone and sodium sulfide. The specific step is to react ethyl ketone with sodium sulfide in an alcohol solvent, and then separate the product by distillation.
Safety Information:
(Ethylthio)acetone has a pungent odor and should avoid inhaling its vapors. Wear appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and goggles during use or handling. In addition, ensure that the compound is used in a well-ventilated environment, avoid contact with ignition sources, and store in a cool, dry place.
