Common NameMethanedithiol
DescriptionMethanedithiol, also known as dimercaptomethane or dithiomethane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylthiols. These are organic compounds containing the thiol functional group linked to an alkyl chain. Methanedithiol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Methanedithiol is an organosulfur compound with the formula H2C(SH)2. Methanedithiol is a pungent tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Methanedithiol has been detected, but not quantified in, mushrooms and onion-family vegetables. This could make methanedithiol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. The compound forms a solid dibenzoate upon treatment with benzoic anhydride. It forms when formaldehyde is treated with hydrogen sulfide under pressure. The reaction competes with formation of trithiane.
