Thiodiglycolic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

GREYISH CRYSTALLINE POWDER

Uses

It finds it applications in the production of [1,4]oxathiane-2,6-dione by heating. It is employed as an anti-oxidant and reducing agent in cosmetics industry.

Uses

Detection of copper, lead, mercury, silver: Dubsky et al., C.A. 34, 6185 (1940).

Definition

ChEBI: Thiodiacetic acid is a dicarboxylic acid.

Safety Profile

Poison by intraperitoneal route. When heated to decomposition or on contact with acid or acid fumes it emits toxic fumes of SOx. See also MERCAPTOACETIC ACID.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the acid from water. [Beilstein 3 IV 612.]
