Introduction
Furyl thiopropionate (also known as thiopropyl furroate) is a colorless liquid with a peculiar foul-smelling odor.
?Quality:
Furfuryl thiopropionate is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and ketones, but insoluble in water. It is a relatively stable compound, but it decomposes under the influence of sunlight and high temperatures.
?Use:
Furfuryl thiopropionate is an important organic reagent that is widely used in chemical experiments. It is often used in sulfur seeking reactions in organic synthesis, eliminating halide alkanes and alcohols, etc.
Method:
Furfuryl thiopropionate can be prepared by the reaction of furfural with hydrogen sulfide, which requires a certain acid catalyst.
Safety Information:
Furfuryl thiopropionate should pay attention to its foul odor during operation, and avoid direct inhalation or contact with skin and eyes. It should be kept away from fire and high temperatures, and stored in a cool, dry place. Personal protective equipment such as chemical protective glasses and gloves should be worn when handling furfuryl thiopropionate.
