Description

Sodiumthiolacetate CAS NO 34832-35-4 is a versatile organosulfur compound, primarily used as a key intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Its value lies in its ability to act as a sulfur nucleophile and a convenient source of the thioacetate anion, facilitating the introduction of sulfur-containing functional groups. This makes it an essential reagent for researchers and production chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Critical for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those containing thioether or thioester linkages.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of certain herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides where sulfur incorporation is required.
• Polymer Modification: Serves as a functionalization agent to introduce thiol or thioacetate groups onto polymer chains for specialty materials.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: A valuable building block for constructing complex molecules in research and development laboratories.
• Bioconjugation Chemistry: Employed in the modification of peptides, proteins, and other biomolecules.
• Flavor and Fragrance Industry: Potential use in the synthesis of sulfur-containing aroma compounds.

Quality Control

Our Sodiumthiolacetate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider handling and storing under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon to maintain optimal purity and stability.
