Chemical Structure

Basic Info
1,6-Hexanedithiol is an organic sulfur compound with the chemical formula C₆H₁₄S₂ and a molecular weight of 150.30. Colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong mercaptan characteristic odor, boiling point approximately 220-222℃, density 1.02 g/cm³. This compound contains thiol groups (-SH) at both ends of its molecule, which gives it good reactivity. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has a low solubility in water.
The structural feature of 1,6-Hexanedithiol is that it is a six-carbon straight-chain alkane with thiol groups attached at both ends. Due to its symmetrical structure, it has special value in materials science. Its chemical properties are highly active. The thiol group can easily form coordination bonds with metal ions and also participate in oxidation, addition and other reactions. This compound needs to be stored in a light-proof sealed manner because it is prone to oxidation and the formation of disulfide. At the same time, attention should be paid to the safety protection against its volatility and pungent odor.
