Common Name1,2-Ethanedithiol
Description1,2-Ethanedithiol, also known as ethylene dimercaptan or 1,2-dimercaptoethane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkylthiols. These are organic compounds containing the thiol functional group linked to an alkyl chain. As a 1,2-dithiol, this compound is widely used in organic chemistry because it reacts with aldehydes and ketones to give 1,3-dithiolanes, which are useful intermediates. Diols such as ethylene glycol undergo analogous reactions to 1,3-dioxolanes and 1,3-dioxanes. 1,2-Ethanedithiol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 1,2-Ethanedithiol is a sulfury tasting compound. Outside of the human body,. One distinguishing feature of the dithiolanes and dithianes derived from aldehydes is that the methyne group can be deprotonated and the resulting carbanion alkylated.1,2-Ethanedithiol is commonly used as a scavenger in peptide cleavage synthesis. It is a common building block in organic synthesis and an excellent ligand for metal ions.1,2-Ethanedithiol is prepared commercially by the reaction of 1,2-dichloroethane with aqueous sodium bisulfide. It has a very characteristic odor which is compared by many people to rotten cabbage. In the laboratory, it can also be prepared by the action of 1,2-dibromoethane on thiourea followed by hydrolysis. C2H4(SH)2 + RR'CO → C2H4S2CRR' + H2OOther 1,2- and 1,3-dithiols undergo this reaction to give related 1,3-dithiolanes and 1,3-dithianes (six-membered rings).
