TOLUENE-3,4-DITHIOL Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white crystalline powder

Uses

Used to generate the corresponding dithiolate ligand in a study of dinuclear gold(I) dithiolate complexes.

Uses

Toluene-3,4-dithiol may be suitable as colorimetric reagent for the determination of technetium using spectrophotometry.

Uses

For the detection of bismuth, molybdenum, rhenium, tin, tungsten, see Bickford et al., J. Am. Pharm. Assoc. Sci. Ed. 37, 255 (1948).

General Description

Toluene-3,4-dithiol with molybdenum(VI) in mineral acid forms dark-green coloured complex. It is purified by vacuum distillation under nitrogen.
