Description

CAS: 75-08-1 | C2H6S | 62.13 g/mol

Ethanethiol acts as a stabilizer for adhesives and an odorant for natural gas. It is used in the odorless liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in order to find out the gas leaks. It is used as key starting material for the preparation of ethylsulfonic acid, diethyldisulfide and sodium ethylmercaptide. Further, it is also used in the underground mining industry as stench gas. In organic synthesis, it gives powerful nucleophile set- in the presence of sodium hydroxide.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
