Thermo Scientific™ Ethanethiol (99+%), also known as ethyl mercaptan, is a high-purity organosulfur compound widely used in chemical synthesis, analytical chemistry, and industrial research applications. This reagent is characterized by a strong odor and high reactivity due to the presence of the thiol (-SH) functional group, making it an important building block in organic chemistry and sulfur chemistry studies.
Ethanethiol is commonly used as a chemical intermediate, odorant additive, and reagent in laboratory research. In analytical and industrial settings, it plays a role in gas odorization, catalyst preparation, polymer chemistry, and synthesis of sulfur-containing compounds. Supplied as a clear, colorless liquid with ≥99% purity, Thermo Scientific™ Ethanethiol provides consistent performance for laboratory and industrial applications requiring high-quality reagents.
